Ralph Torres Posted September 13, 2015 I been working on these slowly. I started the pluming on the twin turbo 69 with the LS.. and started the body work on the pro street.. the Pro Street needed some adjustments and rework done on the brass cage... doing the rework aloud me to lower the rear and to fit the tub.. now i can finally add doors . I been making parts like fuel cells for it.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
