Underhood looks great but put the stock rims back on please.
|
looks like its got a TEC2 under the hood. The rims and wing make me wanna puke, of course bronze heliums on a red car arent the best looking combo either.
Oh and is it just me or does the name "Dick Smothers" strike you as kinda funny lol? |
Lose the wing and change the wheels, and 8K sounds like a good deal to me - but lately clean stock NA's are asking around 5-6K up here.:squint:
Smothers raced F5000 in 1970 in a Lotus 70, was good enough to make a run at the title, but CBS made him quit to protect their TV show. Friend of mine bought the car, ran it in a bunch in VSCCA races, then sold it to some Certified Rich Guy in England. I helped out with prep and in the pits, but never got to drive it:doh: Mmmmmm - 1400 lbs, 5-liter Traco-built Chevy, Hewland LG transaxle, BIG ol' Hoosiers. Used to have a picture of it as my avatar. |
