should i get this??????????

ok heres the thing i can get this car the info is below, now what i was wondering is this car any good if i was speed out of it??? and i am goin 2 be lookin at it soon what should i look for??? or should i bother lookin at it??????

The Details:

The 305cid engine is from the 70's and is not origional or stock it. Has a Edelbrock intake and a Holley 4bbl carb as well as a Comp cams 350 Street/Strip cam.

She's also got a 5 speed with a good clutch and all the nessary Stock gauges, No rust,Power windows,power steering,power brakes,Exhaust tips,Weld Racing rims, Hella blue headlights, Cowl induction hood, and very dark tint.

Speed !

I have only driven it a few times but this car is so fast it hits about 90mph at the top of third gear leaving 4th and 5th gear to the real hairy ****
if you know what I mean. It's a real Hardcore **** killer and with some work a real eye catcher as well!

My B4C tops out in OD at about 153 (speedo goes to 145 but I was a little past that ). I love going that fast (it's always on a deserted road in the broad daylight for safety issues!!).

Later, Garrett

a 70's era 305 is probably worse than a 80's era 305...but really it doesnt matter much.

I'd just look for a 350 to put in it.
