Heres a pic of my summer toy, I built this truck from the ground up with my dad in 2009 for my 16th birthday and it has also changed a lot over the years since being back on the road. It's a '92 gmc sierra with 143,000 km's, 350 5.7L motor with some go fast parts the truck was torn down again last fall (sept. 2012) to go under the knife for air ride suspension, I did all the work myself minus the welding cuz I suck at welding haha. Anyways, it takes a lot of fab work to make a truck lay frame! Just finished the air suspension early this summer and this is how she looks..

1989 Mustang GT that I purchased 5 years ago, it was completely stock down to the exhaust. It needed a lot of basic maintenance, so that was done first. I now sports a 61mm turbo, Anderson PMS controls fuel etc, a 3:55 rear gear, and the list goes on. It sports original paint so that is still on the list to be redone. This winter it will receive suspension and brake upgrades.

1968 Beaumont. I have owned this thing for 10 yrs now, since 18. Right now it sports a hustlers +500hp 427 big block with a 4k stall and t400. Got a Dana 60 out back from strange. Suspension wise I have it setup for road racing with Howe racing equipment and qa1 coil overs all around. Big sway bars. Bassett racing wheels. Hydroboost, etc. And yes she gets driven father than macs, sees trips out to golden/radium. This winter I will be slamming in a 502 big block with a BW turbo of some size at 7-10lbs. Goal would be 6/650 rwhp and a torque curve even a diesel would be jealous of!
