This 1969 Pontiac Firebird is a very good looking car, and it was restored nearly entirely by the owner. It features a pontiac 455 and a 6-speed manual transmission, with some suspension, brake, and wheel upgrades to make it drive as well as it looks. He brought us the car to dial-in the quadajet carburetor and tune it on the dyno.

This 1967 Pontiac GTO came to the V8 Speed & Resto Shop ready to start a new life. Follow along as we strip the car, perform extensive metal repair with parts from OPGI, rebuild and upgrade the chassis with parts from BMR Suspension, brakes, and add FiTech fuel injection to the 400 V8. The car will receive a full Tyrol blue repaint and be returned to the road better than new.

This 1962 Buick Electra convertible originally appeared on one of the very first episodes of V8TV working on the engine and a disc brake conversion. Back in 1998, David Freiburger and Rob Kinnan of Car Craft and Hot Rod Magazines purchased this car for a Car Craft Magazine cheap and fun weekend cruiser project. They gave the original carburetor a tune, did a quickie bright yellow paint job on the car and drove it around for a bit before putting it up for sale. At that point, our friend Paul purchased the car from Freiburger and towed it from sunny Southern California to his home in the Midwest. Paul drove the car for a couple summers until the original Buick 401 Nailhead engine failed, and not having a lot of resources back then, Paul decided to install a small block Chevy V8 that he had on hand. About that time, Paul's job changed, he started a family, and more important life events occurred. Today, nearly 20 years later, the car has arrived in the V8 Speed and Resto Shop where the V8 Team will complete his engine conversion and make the car a driver once again.

This cool 1966 Chevy C10 stopped in at the V8 Speed & Resto Shop for a custom Magnaflow exhaust system to let the LS engine breathe. The conversion headers, custom transmission crossmember, and non-stock fuel tank configuration presented a few challenges, but it's coming together nicely. Look for this one burning up the miles on the HOT ROD Power Tour 2019!

This cool 1974 Plumouth Road Runner was purchased new by our customer back in 1974, and he's been taking care of it very well all these years. Today, the car has some issues with how it runs, so our team is checking the carburetor and electrical systems to make it reliable again.
