    Do you have any current pictures of the motor and car?

    Do you have your 1/4 mile et slip you can post?

    Did you also run the cuda with slicks on the track when you pulled the 11.2? If not what type of tires did you use?

     :burnout:


    i run mickey thompson drag radials i dont have any engine pics at this moment .. the engine is out of the car right now so i could put the tubular front coilover rack and pinion suspension in it ... the times are documented in hotrod magazine during drag week and on hotrod.com

    Does the car still carry the factory weight or have you taken any weight of the car? Like the nose?

    really? Drag fuel or octane boost slows it down? Because of extra wheel spin or motor missbehaving?

    Can you guys look over the pictures to this 73'cuda and tell me how much you would pay for it?

    Pictures are about half way down the thread:

    The guy wants way more than that ($4100), I think I could get it for $3000-$3500 delivered if I push.
