Re: 74 in Lemons 24
Let me guess, spy.
The slick car lot salesman told you this is a "creampuff, clean, one owner, restorable, numbers matching, highly sought after collectable car", didn't he? Last edited by 1matcoman; 02-18-2018 at 12:14 PM. |

Re: 74 in Lemons 24
Actually it is a real K code numbers matching cop car and hard to find. BUT I got that puppy for $250. It had sat in a field for so long the lower crank pulley bottom rusted off. They thought the engine was frozen but the open valves had rotted off and were on top of the pistons. After heads were off it rotated freely. The 140 MPH speedo is worth more than the whole car. Car is in the Lemon 24 wheelhouse. Houston Nov 10th, see what she will do in the straights. HP 440 with 3.23 posi. A hoot!!!

"Jane thinks I have lost my last marble."
Admission of the problem is the first step to recovery. But if this is really not a "problem".......Rock On Phish!!!! |

Re: 74 in Lemons 24
Well we would look like the Flintstones instead of the Justeauxs because the floor cam out with the mat. SO we have scrapped the Fury and scored another $500 Monaco which will get all the cop drivetrain someday. Lil' too purrty' be we can dumb her down. We will run the first race with it's 400 4BBL Leanburn unit. Should be here this week and scheduled for Madman Chassis mid June. Steveaux
