Just a road racing beast in the making.

Hey guys! The name's Brandon and i have a 1972 Coupe. I have other cars as well, but for now we can discuss this one. The car was bought by my dad when i was 10 years old, i am now going to be 22. It was meant to be a father and son project and meant to be a built street car. However, life happened and things didn't go as planned. Instead, when i graduated high school, my dad began to restore it. He paid for the body work and engine, while i paid for the suspension, interior, and brakes. Instead of us working on it, we paid others to do it. Which wasnt wise, the body was poorly done the engine build came out way over budget, and the suspension was not what i expected. I was 18/19 at the time and didn't know much about cars as i thought, so lack of research into things costed money and in a sense, disappointment. Nonetheless, i took what i had and ran with it. I started getting into canyon carver, and into autocross, and into road racing. So i began pushing the car further away from what it was meant to do. And i will continue to push. This build thread is going to be updated as i go on. I started auto crossing with SCCA and i am building a 1994 GT. Maybe you guys have seen it in instagram. That car is getting most of the love unfortunately, because i am starting to get sponsors. BUT i will not forget about my first car, and when i begin to dump money into this car, it will be something to look out for. We also have a 1975 Datsun 280z and a 2007 GT/CS.
