I'm volunteering to be on a friend's pit crew for this season's demolition derby. It's a Buick, but I figure you guys may enjoy seeing the work in progress as we work on it. It's a 66 or 67 Buick Electra 225 4 door, with a transplanted Buick 425ci Wildcat 445 in it. It's a real monster, should take quite a beating to kill it! Worked on it the past couple weeks, just got the engine to run today and tested the transmission real quick. It's going to be a lot of fun, and I might learn a thing or two.

One thing I can say, is we'll pipe the exhaust straight up through the hood, giving it somewhat the look of a pipe organ. We might just name the car "Maestro", and paint a slogan on it that says "We're just here to play." Puns are fun, right?

I'll take pictures soon and update this thread till derby season starts, to keep everyone posted on the project.
