Mrs. Skylark's 06 GTO

We have an LS6/T56 for Essie. If something happens to the goat then it will end up in her crew cab step side project.

Dibs on the diff!

Man, this thread took an unexpected turn.

Sorry to have started the virtual dismantling process...it's how my mind works. If I see a Cadillac Eldorado, I think, "engine!". A Subaru STi, "drivetrain for a Bug or sand rail ". Any GM with a 6.0/6.2 LS, "how much more fun it would make my Crown Vic!" (Bonus if equipped with T-56 trans!)

This was one of my points to her when she was considering a Mustang.

Cool car and great color! I'm 6'2-6'3 depending on the convenience store...and I fit in the backseat of those surprisingly well.

+1 with your wife on the 18's...the first time you buy 19" tires, you'll wish you had already made the change.

The custom ECU tune will be able to get rid of the skip shift (CAGS).

I would vote no on the poly bushings....rubber is still the better choice(in my opinion).

LS2's with dual pipes sound great with Spintechs or Hooker Aerochambers. The Aerochambers will give you a quieter interior ride.

+1 on 19" tires being a PITA, I'd forgotten about that.
I vote Black Widow Neighborhaters for exhaust!

Lol! Me too!

It all started with model cars.
They'd be built kinda-sorta according to the instructions & stay that way for a week. Maybe a month.
Then I'd be into the parts stash or robbing parts from others so the mods could begin!
(*cough*) Decades (*cough*) later, the urge to not leave things well enough alone is still rampant.
It's a damned disease.

Makes me glad that you live in Kentucky cuz that means the 6.0L in the totaled Escalade that I bought that's going into my '89 short bed 4X4 is safe and sound here in Colorado! lol

I'm sorry but that slight miss cannot be repaired. You can drop the car (and signed title) off at my house and I will dispose of it responsibly for you.

Yup, glad to know there's others so " afflicted " LOL!
That's how I started too. Model cars, and then my Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars got repainted.....it's a slippery slope, but it's so fun!
