I saw this car on ebay awhile back and I think even posted it here.



Well here's what it looks like after it went through the 'chopper'.

What I like about these cars (and I plan to build one) is to me they ask the question 'what are they hiding'? Cuz they sure ain't giving anyone a clue. Maybe a 632 cid all aluminum rat ... or a ___?

You should be leaving me in the dust hard if that 638 is built right.

I think that was a good comeback Dave.

After I get some sleep, I'll be able to give you a more definitive ruling.

Got some sleep and yes, typical of most super heroes humor Flash, yours too was intelligent, yet delivered at a much higher speed than us humans are able to.

Photoshop a set of wider rear tires to fill in the mini-tub. You won't get far on those current tires with more than 200 hp. LOL!

I have two orange 69 Camaros, and want to build a black one next time around.
