sleepers....how fast and how plain before it is one?
My 67 notch when done will appear as a stock restoration. Only the people into these cars will know the difference. When i take it to a show, i want john Q public to walk right past it giving its engine bay a glance as a "stock restoration" before looking at the blingy thingy next to it. I love the F.A.S.T. series cars. Their dedication to making these stock appearing cars tip into the 9s is awesome.
Heck i am even going to go with the 1967 pale yellow color with color keyed steelies, poverty caps and black walls. No A/C, radio delete car. I will wire up a shift light to my parking brake indicator. It will have black base model interior with buckets and 4 speed but no console. Just carpet and a shift boot. My nice fancy aluminum radiator, will be scuffed and painted black too. It came with some strange options as a strippo slant sux car when i got it. Had a bench seat, remote drivers side mirror, Vspeed wipers, and the in dash "performance indicator" vacuum gage. I am putting the remote mirror back on, and adding a matching passenger side mirror to it. Performance indicator will be kept intact and is restored, radio delete plate right back in the dash too.
Cordoba big disc / severed duty drum setup and heavy duty suspension with helwig G tech swaybars front and rear as well as chassis stiffening mods rounding out the package. All my chassis stiffening mods are done. Car is mostly in primer. Raising kids and working keeps me busy. Maybe it will get done. I pick at it a little at a time.
