Check this out. All the conversion work is already done. Not bad for 10K US only problem is I'd need a trailer and somewhere to store everything plus I don't think my V6 Ranger would have enough guts or brakes to haul it around.

Link to pictures of car Sept. ’03. ( http://home.comcast.net/~miketaylor68/GoinRacin.htm ) See above for what has changed since these pictures were taken.

Looking to get $5500 for the roller chassis and $6500 for everything I have as is. Until the car sells, work will continue on the car and it will likely be a track day car for me next year as I don’t see that I have the time to maintain and upgrade the car as needed for racing. I now have a 23 month old son and he’s my main interest. Maybe when he gets a little older . . .

As mentioned above, price for everything goes up as more work is done on the engine. Once engine is complete and back in the car in the spring I will be asking approximately $10,000 for the package (including upcoming ported heads and intake manifold for 383)

I do hope someone on this board will buy this car so it can be raced as it was intended. I'll miss it when it goes but it's time for me to do some other things in my life. Maybe when the '07 Camaro hits I might be a F-body owner again.

George, you buy that car and a trailer for it and I'll put a hitch on my car and tow it :P Oh, but I get seat time too

 

Lol.. Ok that's a deal.

It looks good with the 315s on all fours too. There's a GP on ZR1 rims at frrax that I was thinking about: two 9.5s and two 11s for about $550 shipped but there'd probably be difficulties with fitting 11s on the back of my car and I need to focus on getting a motor first. I like this car though and my wife thinks should buy it..lol. This car would solve a lot of problems. I wonder if it could be made street legal.

 

Here's another:

 

After watching the AS race on speedvision this afternoon I often think I should have went the route of buying an already all out prepped car instead as well. Don't get me wrong, I love cruising and the whole fbody group scene but nothing beats racing in my blood.

That's awsome that your wife is saying buy it but I'm sure shes not thinking of the truck and trailer that must go with it as well eh. For sure it could be made street legal tho

 

Thats not a bad price at all for all the owrk that has been done to it.

 

Pretty cool. What's with the single exhuast though or am I seeing things.

 

Nothing wrong with a single exhaust for that power output. Looks like it's about 2.5" and the car has no cat(s) as well. In racing you're better off running a cheap exhaust anyway as they tend to get ripped off the car.

 

Yeah - the OEM style twin exhaust setups on our cars are sort of a crock IMO.

Since it's a single I-Pipe it would be better without all that bending that they have to go through to get the appearance of a dual system at the back of the car.

So, as far as I know, one pipe on the passenger side is actually a better system unless you have a true dual system.

 

I run a single pipe on my 87. Three inch from y to tail pipe. The single outlet make more power than the crossflow style and who needs extra weight anyways?

 

Something tells me you're going to be a problem next year..lol.
