That is cool man.

That thing is quick.

Looks like my times, except my car has only been high 10s@121-124mph in the quarter.

As you can see by the photo credit I do free-lance photography for a few of the books out there. They just happen to like my car.

Just picked up my copy last night...

Like a moron however, I sat in the parking lot of the place of purchase until I was half-way thru the damn thing

I get caught up in good car mags..Very cool that you are in an issue with a few GREAT SBC build-ups!

Looks DAMN clean! Next time, and there will probably be a next time. Settle for nothing less than a wheels up photo

Loan me the camera and i'm laying all over that concrete wall getting the 60ft pic! congrats again

I was wondering if it was anyone on the board. Cool beans... I read the article earlier.. At first I thought you were related to Agostino. But then I relized you have a "D" in front of that...

Very nice car Nick...

Thanks guys.

ARE built the engine thats in the car in that feature. In fact the engine is for sale right now. I am moving onto a Gen 1 SBC for 2004.

I have had my photo work published in a bunch of other magazines, but it is very different when it is your own car. Pretty damn cool I must say

Swapping over to a TH-350 trans with a 8" ATI converter. The stall speed is 4000rpm, and it is a bit on the tighter side so it should dig the nitrous just fine.
