The car has frameconnectors ,the shock towers have been shaved and the rear wheelwhells have been modified for larger tires.
The rearend is a 9" with ladderbars, 31 spline axles, N-case 4,10:1 ratio and No-spin.The front wheels are American Racing with 215/70/14 tyres and in the back are Centerline 15x7.5 inch wheels with 275/60/15 tyres.

428cj vs.429 scj
Took the car for a test run at the drags.More as a baseline check,no preperation whatsoewer 13,61 at100,67 mph,2,25 60ft. with easing it off the line.Think it might be good for super low 13s or high 12s with some tuning.

The 428 cobra jet has hydr.cam,police interceptor aluminum intake,750 cfm Holley carb and headers,other factors are not known.The transmission is a full manual reverse C-6 with 2000 stall and B&M shifter.

The car needs to be restored and it is gona be drive/race and restore restoration.
The idea is to make it to look like a ´70s stock/superstock racecar with lettering,stickers and period correct wheel/tire setup.
