if u saw my car this year, you wouldn't think so.....
1 nice car doesn't make it a good change
All I can tell you is that during auto sessions...the fans always come to our cars in the thunder line first it seems...not everyone will agree...
it all basically boils down to what u prefer. I think the new gen stuff doenst look that good. I have only been to delaware once and there super stock class looked awesome. Most of the cars had nova bodys and i think they looked great. The 88 monte 5 star body looks great its nice to still see the older stuff. Just to me seems the new gen stuff wants to look like a llm without being a llm. But thats just my opion.
Agreed it is a matter of personal taste but all the cars in the Super Stocks are now classified as Vintage!!!
Correct--pretty soon the cars'll be called the "Canadian Vintage Street Stock Series." :-[
That's why I think there needs to be an affordable late model body solution to put on the old chassis... Ala NASCAR, we can keep the chassis and engine combinations we have but work with the bodies. Either by mixing and matching body panels on our own or buying a kit like Five Star's. Only problem is, Five Star only sells the Monte SS body for Street Stocks... They'd have to produce some modern Monte/Taurus/Fusion/Avenger/whatever bodies that fit G-Body and F-Body chassis.
I like seeing the badass old cars too... Hell, there's even that dude who runs the '69 Firebird, how awesome is that. But it must be a BITCH for him if the car goes in the wall to put back together. 😛
Since I think we all agree that the issue boils down to the fact that no new cars built today can be turned into stock cars as they were back in the day, let us assume we have solved the problem and we can now bolt on any sedan body onto your existing frames. What STOCK body would you use? Stock wheelbase to match the rules you have now. Your choice is any North American sedan (two door or 4) between 1990 and 2010 . Considering that the past 20 years no matter when you start has probably been the historic range to make stock cars. Oh ya and why?
