This car is a BEAST.  Extremely loud and extremely quick.  Estimated 800+ hp at the crank, 600+ at the rear wheels.  Wins most shows that it attends including a Super Chevy show in 2012.  The paint is very nicely done it always gets compliments.  Flames are beautiful.  Bumper chrome is near perfect.  Glass is good.  Bright work on trunk lid was just recently re-chromed.  Although the rear tires are 305/45r18’s the car is not tubbed.  Originally a TX and CO car.

Car is set up for drag and street.  Car does not overheat and runs on pump gas.  I have not personally drag raced the car – I have only taken it to shows.  The turn signals, head lights, brake lights all work.  Wiper harness needs to be reconnected (comes with car). I have owned the car for over a year and have another project that I need the garage space for else I would be keeping the car.

What does it need? There’s no horn and no e-brake so will take some work to be street legal. The trunk pan is ok, but does have some rust. Rear tires will need to be replaced soon.  Turn signal switch should be relocated from below the dash to the steering column.  Eventually, the steering rag joint should be replaced.  Comes with car cover and spool for rear end (if you want to convert it back to a spooled rear end).

Any questions?  Please feel free to call my mechanic who knows the car well (he has worked on it many times).
