My new , slightly used 67 notch Budnicks. Don't believe everything you read on the internets :) The white car thing was a "distraction tactic ". I've been on a-bodies for a while.

This was my shakedown pass. Car needs a couple things, but she sure goes!
 
Something different

Seeing how this threads a little slow lately I thought I would throw this out there.32 bantam altered w/blown 392 hemi, glide, 57olds rearend. The chassis is 2x3 box rails w/straight axle front end,leaf spring and friction shocks. The rear is solid mounted w/3.63-1 gears and a spool. Rear disc brakes only and a chute. American racing magnesium wheels all around,18"12 spoke spindle mounts up front. 10x15 4window slots out back.12x30 slicks. The 392 is almost completely stock. Stock block,stock heads,stock crank. Good rods and forged pistons,about 7-1comp. This is a gas motor. Unknown cam w/ just over .400 lift at the valve. Solid lifters,stock push rods and rocker arms. Duel valve springs from Isky. Swap meet blower driven 8% over. Hilborn injection,Mallory mag. Car was built around 1970 w/426 hemi and clutchflite. We run it just for fun a few times a year. Goes 9 flat at 150. A blast to drive I dont push it. I only use the trans brake when I back up.

Yes its a fun ride. Especially with my "crew" getting older. Last time out someone forgot to check tire pressures. The car wheelied hard right. I almost took out the tree. I did hit the box over the 60' lights. Rather embarassing. Go to you tube and search 'nostalgia drags at famoso raceway 1990 part 7'. I'am the second car. Running the 426 injected w/clutchflite. Really good footage,the camera man is next to the starter. Good sound. I first saw this video just a few years back. Quite a surprise when I first saw it.
