Your favorite hot rod.

[mytmousemalibu]

Looks like some serious "toys". I'd be interested in pics of the 64 wagon.......... [email protected]. What's the history on the 79 Malibu wagon? I sold one a few years back as a half finished tubbed/half tube chassis drag car. It was to a guy in Kansas I believe, and I lost touch after the fact.

My BU was a stock 267ci old man's car when i got it! It runs mid 12's now with a stock shortblock (exept .060 over), and it's not too light either!
I'm bout to leave for the NHRA nats here in a min, but if its light when i get back or tomorrow i'll try to get some pics up! :Chevy_anim:

I cant wait to get the car on the dyno and start to tune it. It should make around 2100RWHP. I cant wait to drive it. The car is going to have a 275/60/15 Drag radial on it. If you look up PSCA WILD STREET that is what I plan on racing my car in.

Mel won't allow twin turbo BIG BLOCKS in Wild Street. Check out the rules here...http://www.pscaracing.com/Rules/rules_08_wildstreet.html

There are other classes you could race it in though.:wink5:

back in the day for me anyway one of the guys had a model a ford pickup two tone with a flat head for v8 . i can close my eyes and still hear and see it. maybe if were a crew cab. but boy are those cabs small.

Like my father i have always had a weakness for the 67-68 GT Fastback Mustangs and the 67-68 Mustang Shelby GT-500's which he had both of. I know where his 68 Shelby GT-500 is but the owner wont sell and the 67 GT Fastback was sold to a fella in Vermont so i watch all the car show for it pop up at. I know it is no longer the same color but it had options that few other fastbacks had so i hope to see it someday as i will try to buy it back. BUT, for me the ultimate car is the Shelby Cobra 427. That i would give my left nut for and they can cut it off with a dull spoon too.

69 SS 502 Chevelle

Had since high school (1975), only took 20 years to restore.

 

[Golddigger]

That is sweet 3cylinder!!:thumbsup::thumbsup: I think I drooled on my screen.

 

[Golddigger]

Is that a gear vendors I see?

 

[Ozzie]

I see nobody has mentioned the Cobra...unbelievable car.

The list is so long...one I would love to drive is the old Challenger with a 440 six pack shaker. They are hard to keep on the road, but what a ride.
A good friend of mine had the old 'Cuda 440 six pack. Man...a beasty.

69

Is that a gear vendors I see?

Yes it is. Takes the 4:11 to 3:23 when in OD. Plus I like splitting gears. That must be the X truck driver in me.

 

[Golddigger]

Nice!:thumbsup:

 

[div4gold]

Not really a hot rod, but it's best I've got. Still has the original 265 V8.
