The next few years slowly transfered into a race car and ran a 10.04 best before parking it in my mid twenties to save for a house, family ect. Its been through a couple moves and still sits in my garage with over15 years of dust on it. Not sure what I'll ever do with it as I now have a 7 second Nova that fills my drag racing "itch". But I cant ever sell it at this point. Maybe dust it off and bring it back to life when I retire someday in the far distant future. I cant see myself golfing or fishing!
The old school snorkel hood, huh? Killer, as it just screams 1980-ish.
