I have been having so much fun trying to make the Cuda faster I just want more, and frankly my porky pig Barracuda is not gonna do it. I want a TS Grudge TYPE car...This car with my engine would run 7.50's easily IMO. Dont get me wrong. There are some very nice 6.0 Mopars for sale I just think they are not priced accordingly. The above Vette is a McAmis car for $45 roller. What appeals to me is the weight The above car weighs 2055lb race ready. Most of these I have inquired about are there or less for the most part. I am still actively looking for a 6.0 Mopar and frankly that Cuda last year would have been the car but IMO the price was top high. I can find a similarly set up Vette for $20+K less. While there are a few Mopars out there that are more reasonably priced those just dont appeal to me. I just love this style Vette as a race car. One just like it (but green) won the A gas portion of last weekend's WCHRA race at Speed World.

Its a 10 second car on motor and who knows how much faster it can be with the spray.. Also, its a good looking car outside of the color and his friends would envy him.. Shoot, I envy him and I'm not even a friend.. Regardless of what you do or how you go about doing it..

Its always good for entertainment value to browse thought the adds here..the ones where you get a 5 gal bucket of rust, vin tag, "bill of sale only" for $8,000 These guys are the ones that are hurting the most, and rightfully so. But Mopars always seem overpriced in comparison. Might be worth a call to some of the chassis builders to see if they have any ongoing projects that have hit a money wall
