As stated before , I guess street is subjective. I don't drive my car much on the street , but I can when I want to. My car never had a/c or power steering , but the heater kicks ass and all my factory stuff works.

Well our street car has been 10.20's on pump gas. Weighs 3800lbs has a/c and an overdrive and is as quiet as a mouose. No power adders either. Jeepmon can attest to most of that. We can drive it anywhere on any grade of fuel. Someday it will have some real tires on it and hit it with some nitrous and we will see what it is capable of. Horrific 60' times but it does ok getting down the track. It meets the OP's criteria. It can go anywhere or sit in traffic and never get hot. Can cruise the highway at speed with ease as well. It is raced on the same junk tires it drives around on as well.

When I lived in Colorado I drove my Barracuda to and from the track (60 mile round trip), and the car had to pass Colorado emissions (car strapped to a dyno with the sniffer in the tail pipe + inspection). It ran 11.12 @ Bandimere (5800ft above sea level)on the bottle back then.
Now that I live in Indiana (with a new motor) it runs 10.90’s NA and I still drive it all over the place. Current times in the sig.
67 Barracuda street car, 408, e85, 1.38 60', 6.44 @105.9 in the 1/8 mile, 10.19 @130.5 in the 1/4...so far....

Back in the early 80's I would drive my Cuda to the track with the slicks in the back seat and the floor jack in the trunk. I'd change the tires and drop the pipes and race. The car would go 11.70's-80's 115-117 mph. The eng. was a 440+.030, TRW dome piston (actual comp. 10.9) Crane hyd.552/528 cam, torker, vac. 750, hooker 1-7/8" headers, 3500 stall conv. and 4.56 gears. An 11 sec. street car was pretty rare in the 80's especially with a hydraulic cam but other than the 4.56 gears being a little too much it was pretty mild mannered. Here's a pic with 12.00 on the window from late in 81. I was 19 I wore that 12.00 on the window like a badge of honor.

Went four rounds with the 727 slipping. Then I had my shoulder surgery redone, so I ended the season early...
Walt, Just yankin' you chain a bit, Hope the Surgery was sucessful. Nice car and I like the way it carries the front tires.
