Steve, you bullys! I was not aware of the must race rule?

Car looks nice, but I hate the fuel cell. Does anyone else think the Big hood and front spoiler combination looks funky?

I don't like the big hood period. T/A hood would be nice.

T/A hood...spoiler...lose the front air dam. Other than that it's a killer ride.

Sweet bird indeed, looks like a nice piece.

It could have been negotiated offline...I wonder what the reserve was.

Yeah Steve, is that what really happened? Car was built to be driven, but he wouldn't take it down the 1/4? Not following that one....

For a '67 Firebird, I would of took the $45k and ran.

My offer from PHR was:
"bring the car to the track and we will do a photo shoot"

Let me think about it :rolleyes:

I am on my way :thumbsup:

I know why PHR wants that and I think its a good idea.

I agree, it is a very nice ride that would be that much better with the Ram Air hood instead of the cowl induction hood :yes: .

yup the big hood is no good. Looks like a weird cross between drag race and road race. If he had a poncho motor, I could see why he would need the hood, but with the LS1 it doesn't make any sense, unless he just liked the way it looked. I have a 3" cowl hood instead of the killer ram air hood on my car, but on second gens carburetor clearance is even worse. The flat hoods don't give you any clearance whatsoever
