There's actually a nice one on Charlotte Craigslist for like $1000.00

It actually makes a perfect 1/8th mile drag car, once you cut the cradle out of it the smallblock (with or without trans) can be pulled in and out in about 30 minutes using my custom "Alien rib burst" option!
It only weighs about 2650 and I think the 414" LA 904 is actually lighter than the 4 banger /trans/transfer case/ front diff / axle shafts when it's all done.
The rear is an 8 3/4 out of a 69 B body
It's really a wide track for something that is just under 12' long!
The only real drawback is the .85 Drag coefficient!

.85 drag co-efficient? I call BS. Probably not much higher than .83...
