Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Todd Wiley (Owner) has been "CAR CRAZY" since he was 7 or 8 years old and could not wait until he was old enough to get his drivers license and start racing. In 1986 it finally happened and he has been drag racing and building his own Hot Rods ever since. Just one day after his 16th Birthday April 4th 1986, he took his first car, a 1975 Olds Cutlass or "gutless" as Todd called it to the drag strip. Not impressed with the stock performance of course, Todd added headers, a Holley carb and dual exhaust. Not fast enough, Todd sold the Cutlass and in 1988 he purchased a 1979 Z28 Camaro, and with his friends Brian and Scott's help, built and installed a 400HP 406CI small block with 125HP nitrous oxide kit and that car ran 12.8x et in the 1/4 mile, spinning through all gears on street tires. Once the fun wore off of the Camaro Todd sold it and in 1991 Todd found a nearly perfect 1966 Chevelle, Sea Foam Green. Todd had done so well with the 406CI small block in his Camaro, he built another one with the same 125HP nitrous kit and with decent tires, the stock looking Chevelle with hub caps ran an 11.86 et @ 113 mph. Todd sold the Chevelle in 1993 and in 1995 Todd found a 1970 Chevelle that needed an engine and trans. Todd had been working on small block Chevy engines and now decided a big block would be a fun new experience, after installing his 468CI Big Block and tuning the car a little, Todd's 1970 big block Chevelle ran 11.86 et @ 114 mph with out nitrous and this was a very drivable street car. Once Todd started racing the C5 Corvette for WCC in 1998, his Chevelle sat in the garage most of the time and thats when he decided to sell it and focus strictly on the C5 Vettes he was racing.
