Sweet, I understand this car is for sale and very reasonable, I hope it doesn't get parted out.
Do you have the side pipes in the article?
I'm a sucker for the old racers

thanks for all the calls and pms. i've learned quite a bit more about these cars from some of the guys on here. the car is going back to the previous owner on sunday (who is not an internet guy). so it will be vanished from the e-world. i'll post a last pick of it on the hitch behind the draggin wagon on it's way out.
