More pixs. NHRA 8.50 Certified 4130 Chrome Moly 12 point cage. Chris Alston 4130 TUBE chrome moly TUBE back half. 4 LINK. QA1 Adjustables. Ford 9"/4.88-1. 5/8" rear wheel studs. 15x15 Weld RR wheels. 15x33x16 wide rear tires. Willwood brakes on all 4 corners. 3100 pounds without driver.
Kirkey Seats, Painless switch box, A990 Door and rear Quarter Panel Upholstery. Glass windows all the way around.
100% Street legal. Headlites, turn signals, Horn. Flaming River tilt steering wheel column, LeCarra Steering wheel with horn. Custom Dash with AutoMeter Gauges including working speedometer complete with odometer and trip meter. Car now has 47 miles on it since build was completed.
Current California license plates and full coverage insurance with Hagerty.
Now....the motor...not a race motor.
It is a Oct 2, 1969 block. 1970 440 6 pack short block with INDY heads, 10.5-1, Hydraulic lifter cam. MSD Dist, MSD 6 AL Digital box, TTI ceramic coated headers, Edelbrock Aluminum 3x2 Intake (1969 Chrysler model)..correct Holley carbs. 2500 flash converter. Reverse Pattern Manual 727 Torquelfite. B&M Rachet Shifter.
I ran it this past weekend at Famoso and it ran consistent 12.10's @ 112mph shifting at 5000. Motor and tranny was rock solid. Went down the track on a wire. I kinda expecting those ET's. Pretty much a street motor, which is fine....(for now).
Car can, of course, handle upwards of 1000HP motor and it is built for it.
Probably left out some stuff.
