This is one of those cars that just takes you back in time...but in an adrenaline rushing 600 horsepower kinda way.

This car was a frame off restoration job that was done flawlessly! It has a classics look with a race cars soul. When parked at a show its a beautiful piece of american history but on a backroad when no ones looking.....its just fun!

Its got a 383 true stroker motor with edelbrock intake, and edelbrock heads, its also got a huge comp cam with roller rockers and forged high compression pistons and rods. Its got a fully built 700 transmission that barks the tires going into second and its ran by hursts ratchet shifter. The car has a 150 shot wet nitrous plate system complete with a seperate fuel cell and fuel pump for the nitrous kit. cant see the bottle due to pic angle, sorry about that.

I know the three owners before me. The one right before me just sat it in his garage and only drove it a couple of weekends a year. The two before him were the most interesting. The first one was probably alot like me. He had the motor built for power and paid attention to detail. The exhaust was built custom and straight and didnt even go over the rear axle, i finished it out when i got it. I cant say enough about this cars performance! The next guy left all of that the way he found it but finished out the show quality paint job and had the intirior done in a very classic style so like i said, most people never guess this cars got a drag racing drive train by looking at it.
