Nick F40 Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 for a ford vs chevy race to conmemorate no Mercury/Pontiac/AMC/Plymouth? not really back to it's roots, but DEFINETLY cool and my interest!
MojaveRacer208 Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 OK GUYS ... NOW WE'RE TALKING!!!!!! As a guy who grew up around road racing, who was "there" during the "Glory Days" of Trans Am racing, who crewed on a TransAm team during the 80s on the way to a championship, and who has professionally done restorations of a 69 Boss 302 Trans Am veteran and a Penske-built Javelin which was used for the TransAm Championship 2 years in a row with Penske and Roy Woods racing... I AM interested!!! The Camaro is way cool, but as a Ford guy, the Mustang REALLY gets my attention. Obviously the Camaro uses the C6R chassis. What is under the Mustang skin? Richard Ohh, I guess I should show some pics...

Nick F40 Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 [ok, you ARE my hero! my tastes in cars and a realistic purist racer! Thank you Nick. Just the tip of the iceberg on my story. I am currently working with a partner on re-starting my race car shop. We will aim our marketing at road racers and off road racers (my avatar shows my 2-seat unlimited class buggy heading off for a championship in '83). One of our 1st projects will be a Mustang for the NASA American Iron Series. Aside from that, are there any other build topics on here dealing with TransAm type racers any one could provide a link for? Richard Can I work for you.........or live with you, whichever! Frickin awsome, you don't realize how much you are my hero! I LOVE with all 72 font capitals these cars.
