So... Here we go! First things first, I went to Bonneville for the first time in 2010. Saw so many cool cars and bikes that, in my gearhed mind, the next logical step was to build one of my own. At that point I had a 1950 Chevy business coupe that I thought would fit the bill. Fast forward a couple years. I managed to aquire a 1951 Henry J that had served duty as a gasser in it's previous life. Long story short, I fell in love with ole Hank and the Chevy got sold to fund my addiction. Decided to try and build a car to run XO/GCC. Started to gather parts and picked up a Chevy 292 six to power the car. Started getting engine parts together and late one Saturday night enjoying a beer on the couch I realized I don't know how to read. 292 came out in '62! Welp, that won't work! And so started the quest for a 302 GMC.
Well, enough back story time for some pictures!
