I've got huge love for the G-bodies too, love them done up as drag cars. My good friend had an '84 Regal and another had an '87 Cutlass.

It's all sorted out and can hold it's own with just about anyone that wants to get side by side. I don't build Chevies, unless it's for a friend. But I do enjoy fast muscle cars of any brand. You just can't beat fast and quick, no matter what brand it is installed in. ALAN Quote: Looks different.
