I just bought a set of front disc brakes from Mike who told me about this forum. He said it was a bunch of old farts that like old cars and drag racing. Fits my profile perfectly. LOL. I’ll be 73 this month and still acting 16.

I have a 1960 Impala and drag race an altered with a 468 BBC. My Impala was originally a 348 Glide car, but now has the ubiquitous 350 with a 4 speed. Which no one thinks is cool, but if I tell them it is a 327 they like it. I have fun with that.

I am looking forward to learning more about early 60’s cars from the forums esteemed members.

I just put 15" rims and tires on it since this picture so I could put the disc brake set up on it . I did 15X10's with a 5 inch offset in the rear with 275/15's.
I stuck with the Cragar SS type rims. I also put side dump exhaust which come out just in front of the rear wheels. I will try to get an updated picture.
