SCHWEET! That is a really nice car FishTales! Do you ever make it to any shows in R.I., MA., or CT.?

I bet that in that time yer going to get to that point... when ya say ahh #%^* It "

HA! What do you mean "going to"???
Yeah... it's going to be a long road but... one I look forward to leaving a lot of rubber on!

The stock 6cyl had no tags and... that is the way I'm going to keep it. With the exception of the cowl hood and a look at the "fatties" that will be in the mini tubs, you won't be able to tell it's not a 6cyl from the outside. (Unless you get under the car and look at the headers / exhaust, subframe connectors, drive shaft loop, 12 bolt @$$ end, ...

Good luck,
Rob

When you have Some extra time i would love to see more pictures if you wouldn't mind...

Some Serious Burnin' Rubber!

Rob,
Woohoo,, Awsome,,, is that your Car ? other car ?(not the '69 obviously-lol)
I hope thats on a closed road, lol - cops would love to find yas doing a break race on public streets

On THAT car it doesn't look like POSI-traction -- , if it is Posi-- the right tire has more go to it,huh ?,as that's most of time the 'drive-tire' But theres nothing like 2 long fresh strips of rubber down the road from a car with Posi ---sill hot if ya touch 'em ,, lol thanks alot for the pics ,,, how'd you know,,,I love that kind of stuff!

Also---Good-Year or whatever tires you use - Must LOVE you and that F-body Club!! lol The service reps know yas by name? lol (just kidding) They Must go thru a lot of stuff- though ,,, that's fun to do,, But not a lot (unless you wanna repair cars a lot), don't beat on a car that awsome, But don't drive under the speed limit either ......LOL ---

Now get in the garage and work on that car!


Thanks again!

have a good one!

HA! Yeah... we tend to go through a few tires! It is on a "closed" road - Indust. Park at one of our sponsors.

That is not a car of mine but I belive it is posi - it was just windy that day (prob blowing the smoke under the car.)

The "toy" I sold to buy my boat. How about 10:20's at 133mph in the quarter mile, in street trim and tires......Talk about a natural high try 600hp at the rear wheels. 347ci of stroked Boss 302. I was the original owner, bought it new in 1986 in Hawaii and it was drag raced within 2-weeks of purchase. There wasn't a whole bunch of cars in the area that could handle it.....
