I almost bought this cars twin two years ago. The car was in florida and the owner and I just couldn't come to terms. I think it was finally sold to someone up north, but I'm not sure. The way things finally turned out, I'm glad I didn't buy it.

As the old lady in the Wendy's commercial used to say "Where's the beef"  No engine? But boy she sure looks fast.  :2fast4u:

For bench racing fun...I'd go with a stroked (570ish CID) aluminum 460 block topped with a 1050CFM Dominator and a healthy three stage laughing gas system. Then make sure your bladder is empty before entry ;D
