History
Purchased from a friend in 1985. The car was primarily a bracket race car and raced weekly at Orlando Speed World Dragway from 1980 thru 1985. When I bought it, it was painted black with some very dated red and orange lightning bolt style striping on the sides. The car was last painted in 1994 in the original LeMans blue color. It's had more than it's fair share of engines throughout it's lifetime, probably around 6 or so since I've owned it. Finally got tired of the 396 and upgraded to a 509 with Fast EZ 2.0 fuel injection. Without question it is the best combo the car has ever had.

Modifications
Drivetrain
Engine is a .030 ZZ502/502, with all ZZ502 rotating assembly, camshaft, heads. Currently has the ZZ502 dual plane, but it will be replaced with a single plane Torker II mid February. With the fuel injection and tuning this car will be pretty decent for a street car. I will be a 10 second player for sure.
Transmission is an in-house built TH400 with many JW Transmission parts and a JW 3400 converter.
