Ultimate Gift for my Dad
 
First, let me say this is not without financial backing from my father, but I have been working to get this car for him forever now, and I hopefully will be loading it on a transport for him next week.

Ever since I was small, my dad wanted to replace his 1970 chevelle that he had as a kid, but he wanted a small upgrade from the 307 car he owned in the form of a 454 SS LS6 car... If all goes well, I will be picking it up tomorrow and storing it for the next week or two before I can send it off to him. He is like a pig in crap right now... Hopefully all goes well...

It is a SS LS6 clone car, done well, very clean, and the perfect driver for him...

It is a 454 solid lifter engine... we will call it ls6++ specs. Should be around 550hp

Was able to finalize the deal tonight and towed it home...It gets to sleep with my toy for a few weeks... -(P It will be getting dyno tuned, vintage air installed, and general cleaning up done before it goes off to dad.


Dont mind the flash, it makes the paint look bad
