SCHWING! That is one uber-crisp ride!

What did it run during the re-cert runs?

Didin't see any class ID on it. What class are you going to run it in? SC?
 
Thanks guys, runs 9:37 @ 142 MPH.He ran S/Pro, but it can run S/Gas, or S/ST. I plan to run S/P, and maybe Super Street (with an extra 100 lbs in the trunk. I prefer S/ST because the MPH would be faster for that class.
I saw the records & time slips, it won both days of a Mopar Race. It is deadly consistant.129-130 60's.
It was a Top Sportsman car in its former life with a blown Hemi ran 4-0's. I would say because the chassis is mild steel, it became out dated because those guys are running 6's. The chassis is 25.1, looks like a jungle jim!
Has a fab 9" with 40 spline axels. It's bulit bullet proof for sure.He spent a lot on detail putting it together.

Looks like a well engineered and built car. I like the panther pink.
 
Congrats on your new toy. Looks like its gonna be a beast for sure.
 
24K..... $1700.00 to get it home.....$1500.00 in fly miles to go see it.looked 2 years to find one forsale this nice.3 other people were trying for it, I had the cash in hand.
 
Congrats on the new race car. I never thought pink looked that good. When I see that car it gives pink a whole new meaning. Enjoy that beautiful car.

that is a great looking car and even though I think pink is a pretty fruity colour for a car (kinda like something you would expect on a Miata) but the power packing mopars look good in it

one silly question though...why are you taking pictures of your car NAKED?

I thought the same thing about Pink...I told my buddies you are going to either love it, or hate it. Suprising that I only have 2 people out of 40 that don't like it. But maybe others don't want to say anything to hurt my feelings.My wife and I love it, so that is all that matters.
I told my buddies that it took big eggs to paint a race car that color, but they said we have bigger eggs to pull the trigger and go buy it! I felt very complimented.
I am not a pink fan either, but the car stands out, is different, and really gorgeus in person.People at his track were sad to see it go.
The "naked" picture was taken by the previous owner. It was taken in Gerogia, so I am guessing it was super hot and humid, but what do I know, maybe he had a wierd love affair with the car!
 
I showed it to my son last night. He said there would be no problem driving that car.
That being said, that color works real well on that car, not so sure it would work on others.
No doubt, you bought a very nice car.
I love it.
 
That is one SWEET ride!! No matter what color! Congrats!! On a side note, got the refund from calvert,no regrets.
