I was heavy footed with it, but car would stand out. black on black, limo tint and it was kinda loud! back then I was younger and dumber, raced a lot on the road with it. its still alive from what I heard!

Finally put it on the dyno...

Got decent numbers considering that I only have $600 into the engine on free and traded parts.

265 rwhp equals around 330 at the engine. Plus, really nice torque curve (ignore the electrical hiccups in the torque). AND, the car weighs around 2900 lbs.:reddevil:

Why have just one awesome vehicle when you can have a whole slew of beaters?

Here is my favorite bike: '72 RD250 w/ 350 cc motor swap, Accel Superstock coils, bored carbs, massive K&N filter, and a few other minor mods. It would lift the front wheel all the way thru 3rd gear. Very scary in first! It would absolutely out-run any 600cc bike from a stoplight. But I sold it to help finance the paint for....

My favorite car: '71 Datsun 240Z Series I. 280Z motor swap, 5-way adjustable suspension, 2" suspension drop, adjustable camber & caster plates, custom 3" exaust, custom race harness mount/body support, K&N filter. On the outside, this car looked basically stock. But it ran very nice. It was a total restoration that took 8 years of my time. Every nut and bolt, body part, speck of paint, etc. was removed from the car. I did everything myself. The wife was pissed, though. It became my "red-headed girlfriend." I used to run AutoX with this car and have a hell of a lot of fun on the street. Gave many a stock 5.0 'Stang a run for their money with a 30+ year old car!

Sold it to help pay for the Seadoos...
