    That car has to be fast as hell..That engine in a dump truck full of gravel would run in the 13s.
    I remember when hot rods were all home made.

    Yea had it out today for a bit, down in low gear jumping on it the front end lifted. My buddy in the passenger seat had a pretty wide eyed look when we came down and felt the front tires touch pavement again.

    If I had that car, I'd get a set of brakes and hubs and replace the spindle mounts, unless you're really in love with the look. I'd be awful nervous dropping that 440 from a wheelie onto those wires! Or bending it around a quick unexpected corner or lane change with all that weight on them. Gotta admit it looks great!

    Hey Nate, I think after awhile You may change your mind on those spoke wheels!!!!My bucket has polished aluminuin this and that and the whole front end is chrome and after taking it out for a spin,I spend the next 4 hours polishing everythig again while mutting under my breath about the stupid person (me) that decided to have it all done...

    ^yea I know what you mean, I dont mind to much though my daily driver hasnt been cleaned in awhile. Usually after every drive I pull it in the garage and go over the whole car quick and do all the wheels with a microfiber rag. Seems to work good so far and doesnt take long at all.

    Cool T.... Nice to see somthing other than SBC, I've got one because it's cheap. I like shiny stuff so I got some polished aluminum and such on both my trucks, and one day I questioned my sanity, cause I hate polishing anything. Some guys like it though. Anyway very cool ride. Hey if you drive it just right, you'll never wear those front tires out.
