Thinking about getting "Ole Blue" out for the weekend, might even change the plugs lmao. It's a fairly stock chassis with some ole cast iron Indy heads. Been together a long time. Prolly run a 6.0hhh. Might tickle a 5.90 if the DA comes around. Stock block deal with a 727. Same car I gave the ninja from work a ride in a couple months ago. He has a Ka-Blue-E shirt in Japan now. LoL

Put the back seat in it yesterday. Weights right at 2950# might be it's last runs for a wile.

Interior ain't bad. Just a bench seat car . Had the car 25 years. Lots of good times in this car. Use to drive it to Buddy's house and give them rides lmao.

I can still ask friends what's the fastest car they ever been in and it's this one.

Fenders and hood.
Stock floor pan, stock frame rails, still has spare tire well. But I cut out front inner fenders to put in the cage.

What amazes me about that combo is the race weight with a steel headed motor.
