welcome out of the closet. what does it have done to it?
hello everyone, i have lived in the cedar rapids area all my life. i grew up loving cars and when i was old enough to drive, i was cruising up and down first ave. that was back when people still did that. back then i would hang out in the autoshine parking lot with all the street machines. that was were i started loving drag racing. now i own a modestly built 1980 cutlass that i have owned for around 9 years. i have slowly built it up over that time. here are three pictures of my ride. you may have seen it around, i have been to tristate a few times with it.

well I guess the camaro is staying good project for my kid.
i was not sure where to post these since i'm new. so here are some new pics i took tonight.
Is is built for bracket or what? Whats your plans or are you just happy with it as is?
well i'm never happy with how fast it is. not really intending it to be a bracket car. always looking to go faster. hoping to be into the 11's next year. maybe going to go e85, perhaps a blow thru supercharger setup in the future.
