That's great to hear. I often wondered what happened to that car. Glad he still has it.[/quote]
I think he kept it in the states awhile and did several drag weeks with it. That was a really neat car that ran well.

Thanks for the nice words guys. I have never been one to buy a car that needs nothing, but this might be the one. I'm not nuts about the stealth heads with the stock rockers and hydraulic cam, but it does run good. Its the muscle motors street crate 505. Overinflated power numbers, but thats fine. I wont be tooting my horn about the dyno numbers anyhow. My plans if anything will be to add some better heads and a hydraulic roller.

If it's a MM motor with stock rockers do yourself a favor and put some good rockers and pushrods in it. Trust me on this......

Welcome back Tony!!!! I have this feeling we will be reading all about the changes coming to this car sooner then you want to admit - we all know you can't leave good enough alone ---- I'm rehabilitated, I think...Ok, well maybe just a couple small changes in mind
