Just thought I would post up a quick picture of my newest project.

(IMG:http://i254.photobucket.com/albums/hh87/camaroz1985/914/PIC-0088.jpg)

Its a '75 that I will be building for the $2009 Challenge. There is no engine now, and I am still trying to figure out what I will be using.

I think about 200hp should be good enough if I can keep the weight down. I figure I have about $750 for engine and cooling system (or preferably a parts car that I can get everything from).

What do you guys think? What are my best options? Who has cheap parts they want to sell to help the cause (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I'll update this as I progress.
