The opportunity to become an instant street hero for $13k has to be tempting someone to go to the bank!!! Beautiful car that just simply sounds mean!!!

Have you considered putting a FS sign on it and taking it to larger car shows? I’m willing to bet there are more then enough muscle heads that would spend $15k on this locally… just not gonna get to em through NYSpeed.

Good idea, or take it to the track with the sign in it. Try next wednesday during those shred/ragan cruises at lancaster. Take a potential buyer for a trip down the track with it.

That doesnt include what the car initially cost to buy, or any of the other things I listed above which are alot of other things, and I’m forgetting more. Just showing you what that price actually covers. Plus all spare parts go with the car. I’m losing my ass here no doubt about it!! But theres no way in hell I’ll see even close to what I got into it and I know that. Some people might think 13k is too much. But thats your opinion and keep it to yourself. If I could have built this car for that much money I would have.

Dude idk, to me that seems very fair. I know what i’ve spent on my car and what you have into yours, i’d be asking the same price on my shizzy… :tup: glws! b4u

I ran it in 2004 with a smallblock at lancaster 6.94 @ 99.54 w/ 1.54 60 foot so it can hook up

I wasnt very track savvy…only went a couple times ever. The car is setup alot better in all areas now. I pretty much gave the car a makeover once I went to the bigblock.

Bigblock made that smallblock setup feel slow, hella slow. Bigblock is sometimes uncontrollable on the street. Gotta be careful. Never ran it at the track with Bigblock setup but I can only assume it will be much faster that with the smallblock.

Compression is 10.5.1 I just ran 93 octane in the tank and race gas in the cell for the spray.

I’ll work on getting up more pics.

for justin to take it to the bigger car shows would cost 100s in gas alone. Probably not worth it
