The cars on this site are amazing! I wanted to know if anyone had any ideas or pictures of pro-touring cars that are not camaros, firebirds, or mustangs. Maybe something like a slammed pro-touring 1968 barracuda? Any ideas?

I love the common stuff too but I lean toward more off the beaten path stuff.

I would LOVE to see someone here do a first gen 'Cuda with a tube chassis, viper drivetrain and suspension with a Lat/PT style interior !!!! That would be wicked !

How about a Dart??? I'm just beginning the build on a '69, 5.7 Hemi, Viper T-56-IRS-wheels-brakes, full tube chassis, 4"-5" ride height... Lots of work to go. I'm on quarter replacement now and am finding more I need to replace before I start on the chassis. Rendering coming soon...

had problems trying to edit the 1st post, so here's the pics. It'll end up a mix of Pro-Street-Touring with a set of Mickey Thompson 29"x18"x18" Sportsman SR's for the back

THAT would work for me too ! I've had several darts from 340 6 packs to a 440 mag version and they had plenty of power - and didn't handle worth a crap. Tube chassis and modern suspension would fix that. Can't wait to see the build !

A couple pics I have saved over time....The light blue one is from Forabodiesonly.com (air ride/RMS suspension)

I'm pretty sure my Demon would be something different than the norm

I like the first one. The oil pan on the third is a tad low.

Like some of the other BOP A-bodies posted, we are a little different from the Chevelles but have all of their aftermarket support. Win win!

I liked the West Coast Customs version of the 67 they did a few years back. (saw it at SEMA 08) Custom chassis with suspension and drivetrain would need to be replaced with C6 or Viper stuff to make it my kinda whip...
