That's very cool. What ideas do you have for it?

'75 vert. Very cool.

Edit: I thought it was a '74 at first.

Congrats!

But it looks too nice to drag it. Is that a removable 1pc hardtop?

Well.. thinking seriously of a pace car type front spoiler setup, some kind of rear spoiler treatment... maybe pace car, not sure on that yet. I'm going to try to get the car down into the 11s. It has a 4 bolt main sbc in it now, should be a good block to work with. Blower?

I'd like to some kind of motion paint on it. I haven't really seen ones I like with that rear end.

Definitley a thumping sound system

Yup, 75.. white soft top. I assume it's a one piece hard top, didn't know there were other kinds.. definitely removable

Yeah, he was asking 10, I asked him what his bottom dollar was, he said 9.5 without the hard top. He asked me if I wanted to take it for a ride. I said no real need because I didn't think I was wanting to pay what he was wanting, but I'd go ahead and give him an offer. I figured there wasn't going to be a deal. I offered 9 with the hard top. He thought about for a minute (doing some math in his head) and said ok.

I had seen the car for sale about 6 months ago for 15, then a couple of months later for 13
