This car started off one big pile of rust. Did all the work myself including the paint which is Prowler Purple. New floors,trunk,quarters,fenders, pretty much everything. It isn't done yet, but almost.
In it is a 540 Hemi engine. The blower is an 8-71 BDS blower. It is fuel injected, has a gear vendors overdrive/underdrive unit, so it is a 6 speed standard, all around disc brakes, I put the FAST system on this car which allows me to change many parameters and make the car faster or slower.
Right now the car is way underdriven and on the chassis dyno it was pulling about 740 pounds of torque and just under 900 horsepower, but they couldn't push it any harder, they were concerned it would break the chains on the dyno. The horsepower was still climbing when we stopped.
I drive this car as a "daily driver", but can change it over with the FAST system to race if necessary. I have a Dana 4:10 gear on the car and almost everything comes from Indy in the engine.
I have another twin to this car that has a 426 race Hemi in it and no blower. It only takes race fuel though so it doesn't get driven as much. It is in the picture with it.
My wife has a 72 Cuda, all original, numbers matching. I am looking for another '69 that needs resto. If you know of one near Georgia, let me know.
Also, check out my link on the left for more pictures.
