That 61 Skylark would look very nice with some 33"x21.50"s and a blower :yes:.
BTW, is that your 2nd Gen. in the photo album as well?

Hummm look what I found (thanks for the plug John). Those cars happen to be mine (the 61 Skylark and the 70 Camaro). I sold the Camaro and I am still working on the Skylark. The Skylark does have an 8-71 on it. The car is much too small to put really big tires on the back. It has 325/50/15's on it which is plenty of tire. This car has to handle and perform. I like the pro-street look but, if the car can't back up the looks with decent ET's then it is embarrassing. I have been to the track and seen guys come off the trailer with their Pro-Street cars and crack off 14 second ET's. That looks kind of silly with huge tires, full cage, wheelie bars, and a parachute. This type of thing is what turned people off on the Pro Street thing.

:thumbsup: Royce, it was one of the coolest vehicles that I could think of at the time!
Looking forward to seeing the progress soon :yes:
(ps: been talking through a little evening/afternoon get-together up at Donner one night during HAN week - if you're planning on any certain days let me know [kids and misses would be included if they are planning on coming along also :yes: ])

John,
I don't have any plans for HAN this year but, if I'm not working I will drive up for a day. I will let you know as time gets closer and we would enjoy hanging out with you guys at the lake. I'll mention it to Nelly.

Tri-5 Chevys are always a cool choice for ProStreet treatment. Here's a 57 I built about 20 years ago. I sold 10 years ago it to build my Camaro.
