Haven't been around much

I haven't been around much due to other things in life.
But i still have my BB T Bird and clean it off and took it out today.
All in all time has not taken much of a toll on the car.  Yes i still need to do the bodywork.

29x12.50    X

I have more room in there to run even more tire X
The back half is tubbed with 9inch and ladder bars X



This car has a lot of miles on it in good and bad weather.  I will be very busy with wire wheel and cleaning it up to the way it use to be when i 1st built the car.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

I can fit a  29x15.50-15 with no probs but i find the 12.5s ride better on the street and dont look to over kill.

I have been busy dealing with X,  In nut shell I won that deal.
Back to ThunderChicken it needs alot of work now, Body is not to bad but it will still take alot of time to get this car as nice as my cougar was.
On side note it goes like hell and this winter i'm working on the turbo setup or body.  I have not made up my mind yet but who knows it depends on my mood lol.
