The previous owner was the one who did everything performance wise to the car. I know he did a complete engine rebuild. It was bored over to a .383 and had a stroker kit installed. It also had roller rockers put in it. Hooker headers and flowmasters ran straight out in front of the back wheels. I want to have the exhaust ran out the back but nobody around here wants to work on it. It also has all new suspension parts, tie rods, bigger sway bars, and polyeurathane bushings. It handles like it's on rails. I did put a brand new tranny in it when I got it. It has a hurst dual gate slap shifter too. Right now, I'm in the process of converting all the interior to black and I'm putting in some recaro racing seats and a roll cage.

Jesus thats a nice ride,

damn man that thing is so nice im so jelious.... if the exhaust runs with cats there is no need to worry about emissons, or are u just out for the look of the exhaust tips out the back? Does it run? And any engine troubles? The car to me looks great on paper I want a pic bad of the engine and body ..... email me @ ff575maranello@hotmail.com ... looks like what your doing is right, 383, new tranny damn man that things a beast.

The engine isn't all that pretty right now, really dirty. I can get you a few pics of the body, I can even take a pic of the inside if you want. I have the entire interior torn out. It runs very well actually, but i can't drive it much around here because the cops hear me coming a mile away. It doesn't have any cats, just straight pipes behind the mufflers, illegal as hell. If it's a nice day tommorow, I'll snap a few pics of it and email them to you.

I haven't had it at the track yet, so I'm not sure what kind of times it will run. All I know is, it's scared the hell out of me a couple times. It gets away from me real easy. I have real trouble hooking up.
