Here is a link to some of my bad photos from the car show!

Here are some teasers. :2thumbs:




Wow, I haven't seen the black rapid transit cuda since about 1988, was wondering if he still had that car...
70 Cuda, 7.0L Gen-III Hemi, Viper T56 w/9310 gearset, 3.91's, Megasquirt MS3x v3.57, Innovate wideband, Firm Feel upper arms, torsion bars, springs and strut rods, QA1 DA shocks. I did everything on this car except the fancy paint stuff and I drive it...and I can't seem to stop messing with it....

I remember it back in the late 80's early 90's when his son was driving it.

I went with him and a friend out to Baylands to run the car back in 87/88 when it still had a 440 in it (I think).

He told me about running it back in the day. Said he found a ton of track slips in the ash tray recently from there.

I wouldn't want to be the guy that owns that cordoba, guess he got a good deal on rubberized under (ok maybe over) coating that day....

Funny you mention that. Paul said that they cleaned the rubber off and it made a softball sized ball of rubber.

I know its old but I remember driving past there to go to work and saw all the vipers wondering what was going on. I live literally 2 minutes from there on the other side of 87 freeway.
