bodies, Mandrel bent 45* turn outs & turndowns, it aint
quiet. New ball joints & control arm bushings. This car is fresh. Only a few short
shakedown passes on a brand new street close to the house here. The
engine is not built for real high RPM, should be about 65-6800.
I did that so it wouldn't be so hard on
parts. In the Pro-Street realm this car is more
towards the Pro side. With 4.56 gears it should run 10.5's all day
and not kill the pocket book. If no one buys it soon I'm going to
take it and get some 1/'8 mile numbers. Car will be set-up to
hook and go straight. Any questions, Neal @ 559-469-7654 |
