Now all it needs is some 26" rims

I can't say enough good things about that car!

Paging G_Body_Man!

I must be the only gearhead on the planet who thinks burnouts are stupid. The car is pretty cool, I readily admit, but really? Three GoPro angles? And end credits?

I LURVE burnouts.

No idea why.

I just do.

Imma gonna go do one right now in your honor.

Have at it! I quit liking burnouts as soon as I was fixing my own broken crap and buying my own tires.

Let me restate, I do like the car, a lot.

Nope, not the only one.

It was four GoPro angles.

And his mom is going to kill him for leaving those marks on that pristine driveway.

I've sometimes wondered how close S10 or Bravada AWD hardware is to bolting onto these cars.

It's not about the burnout (to me anyway)... The freaking thing is AWD! That's plain cool!

that was my same though, i would almost put money on it that the front frame section if from a 4wd s10 and a transfer case from astro/bravada/syclone/typhoon, atleast i would think that would be the easiest option with a GM drivetrain.

and i LOVE burnouts! cant explain it but they are great

I didn't know there was such a thing but I am one now.

A bit of tongue in cheek there!

Burnouts are fun. Sometimes I wait until my neighbors leave for church, then it's burnout time!!

It's going to take G_Body_Man a month to catch his breath.

He might never have children.

In reply to edizzle89:

I thought that is what this was....

In reply to Duke:

COMMIE!

I read on another site about this car that he claims to have about 40 hours worth of frame fab work in this project. I would have figured ten times that much. Thats almost nothing for what it accomplished.

The last set of tires I bought cost me $800, so, yeah gratuitous burnouts are not in my future either.

Apparently he used a Trailblazer SS system, mated up to an LS3 (IIRC). That thing's nuts!

without clicking on the link, i'll guess that it's the same awd Cutlass that makes the rounds on teh internets every few months or so?

did he finally come clean on the drivetrain? he used to be pretty secretive about it, but it looks like Trailblazer stuff to me..

He says he used a mix of Trailblazer SS and Olds Bravada bits.
