They look different to me. IDK lighting makes it hard to tell.

Re: Finally, some recognition!
It has the Sport Edition KV5. Not really sure why, unless they got a pre-production model from GM?
Definitely a N* GXP though. That engine sound is unmistakable. A lot of times when I was in HS my mom would stand in the garage with the door open when my dad was leaving, and hearing that car sound up was a fantastic thing to wake up to, lol.

Yup, sounds like a N* revving up on start. My cranking noise is different though. And the take-off noise is dubbed in

Lots a stuff to get those into the 12s. A buddy has an 82 GMC shortbed. BUILT 400, BUILT 700R, BUILT 12 bolt. low 13s. Biggest problem is traction.00Beast wrote:That truck is only beat down because that's the point.
I want my 67 to be in the 12's. That would piss some people off.
Here it is when he accompanied the Bonne meet I hosted, this was pre-400, ran 14.3

Re: Finally, some recognition!
Are they GP GXP rims? I know those look like the KV5.

They look similar, but different. They're definitely the KV5's on the car in the show.

I feel left out of the star wars comparisons. Are there any geriatric and confused star wars characters with a love for ridiculous highway gearing?
