I know that "for sale" belongs in "for sale".... but this is unique, and something that the hard core drag racers are going to be more interested in.....

Hard to believe, but George Baxter is selling his 30th SS convertible. Currently running a 1,325HP 383ci/Vortech S/C'd Dart Iron Eagle SBC, TH400, Moser 9-inch, and all the absolute best parts that money can buy. The car is configured for the PRO/Edelbrock Xtreme Street class, and has run 8.6 @ 160+ MPH. With a little juice added, there's no reason it couldn't run low 8's.

The entire engine and trans were completely rebuilt in the last month. Business reasons forcing the sale. [EDIT] Sale will consist of the car, complete and the enclosed trailer. [EDIT]

Take it to the track and run mid-8's.

Final price not set yet, but on the chance you might be intersted, send me an e-mail.

OK.... here's the deal. Complete 1997 30th SS convertible, as raced in PRO/Edelbrock Xtreme Street class. Motor and trans fully rebuilt in last month. You need nothing else to make 8-second passes (except an NHRA "competition" license). Includes a 26-ft enclosed trailer, so you tow it to the track, and drive it.

383 Dart Iron Eagle block, fully CNC machined for weight reduction. Brodix 10X heads. Engine management by MoTeC (at least $5,000 in MoTeC equipment including M800 computer, IEX 8-channel ignition driver, "mini-dash", extended data logging, wide band O2, driveshaft rpm sensor, etc - the list goes on), $2,000 custom-made 2" step headers, Vortech X-trim with huge, custom water-to-air intercooler (runs approx 24# boost), custom solid roller cam, shaft rockers, coolant lines to siamesed exhaust ports, full crankcase evacuation system.... in short the absolute best parts, engineering, machine work and assembly money can buy. All assembly, tuning and dyno work done by Second Street Speed, Perkasie PA. Go to the "authorized tuners" list for MoTeC, and you will find there are very few, including names like Kenny Dutweiler, along with Bill Hunsberger of Second Street.

Engine dyno shows 1,325HP SAE corrected. Chassis dyno shows 1,000+ RWHP.

Trans is a custom built TH400, just upgraded with a ton of billet parts. $2,000 adjustable convertor.

Rear axle is Moser 9-inch, with light-weight bolt-thru center section, gun drilled axles.

Wheels are Bogart P1 Billet SS.

Front suspension: Addco springs/shocks, suspension travel limiters, Mark Williams light weight brakes.

Rear suspension: HAL/QA1 shocks, 94 Formula springs ( :D - at least my springs have made an 8-second pass), Full Spohn LCA's, relo brackets, custom torque arm, Mark Williams brakes, Wollfe sway bar.

This car pulls a 1.31 60-ft, and will go 1.2x easy with a more aggressive launch.

Probably a lot of other stuff I forgot.... go to this link and look over the pictures:

$35,000 or best offer. MUST sell immediately.

No.

For $35K you get the 30th SS and an enclosed trailer. The Suburban is not part of the deal.

The deal on this car was supposed to close yesterday (10/1)... not sure if it did. If it did, the car is on its way to CA.

We are all sad to see it go. But I think it found a good home :)
