After seeing the Air Ride Technologies 1966 Chevelle thrash the autocross at the Run Through The Hills III event, we were sold on the outstanding handling AND smooth ride of the Air Ride Street Challenge suspension system. This time, we build the front 1/2 of this system on our '66 GTO. We're still pushing to get this car on the road for the Hot Rod Power Tour in less than a month.

Great deal on the air ride suspension. Looks classic, but with up-to-date mechanicals. Looking forward to Part 2.

Thanks! The second part will post soon. Can't wait for the wheels and tires to arrive to get this thing on the ground for good!

We're kind of jumping ahead and posting nightly video updates as we push to get the GTO ready for the Power Tour. We'll be posting more of the detailed installs later, but for now, we'll post these quick updates, as we've got about 18 days to make this a driver!

We finished the back 1/2 of the GTO's Magnaflow exhaust kit off by running it through the bumper in place of the original reverse lights... came out pretty trick. We'll get to the reverse lights later!

The good news is that the GTO finally came to life! The Mast Motorsports controlled L92 sounds really sweet. We're thrashing to get some brake issues fixed and waiting for tires, but we should be driving it today. Lots more video coming!
