Don't mean to be too critical on it as it is a nice looking ride. But it is at the point it needs SFC and a Roll Bar, before it becomes tiwsted  and the doors don't shut. That C4 tranny is not going to take a lot of beating.

its also still 4 lug, all those mods, never went to 5 lug. he's also running 325's on a 8'' wide wheel, that seems like alot of tire to me.

Not diggin' the color, and the lack of trim and contrast and stuff but other than that looks pretty badass, bet it sounds nasty too. Cool.

Doesn't look like 325's from the pic from the rear.... Perhaps a typo? 

He didn't really mention whether or not the frame was reinforced in any way so it may actually be reinforced. 

I actually like the color.

Those look like 325's based on the fact that I have 275's on an 8" rim in both 26" & 28" diameter. The 28" tall 275's look rather narrow on a 7" rim, those are bulging like mad on that 8" rim. The 28" diameter & 8" rim make the tire look smaller than it would on a proper 10" rim. They are only like 12" section width on an 8" rim which is only an inch wider than my 275/50's on an 8" rim. I can't complain about someone who want's to race something different - it's a good starter car for someone who wants a street-strip car and doesn't mind feeding a 460 big block with $4/gal gasoline!
