Re: Dime Rocket Fantasy
Hey Father (elapsed) Time, I thought that FWD combos didn't qualify as "Dime Rockets"!

I changed my mind, after seeing 90 cents or more go into that Monte Carlo. Besides, I 've got plenty of D/R's that are RWD, but they're au..au..automatics, and that ain't me. RWD D/R stick shift cars are as rare as old Escorts.

Re: Dime Rocket Fantasy
As evident I must like a "slow" V-8 Stick car as much as anyone. Given that if you try to do one on a budget it will be a parts eater. Unless you find something really light or horribly underfactored like a 302 FFFFord. The fox body 5.0 guys throw away good 8.8 rear ends too.

Re: Dime Rocket Fantasy
I have a 64 Chevy II four door runs and drives V8 glide, you have to find the 4 banger. It is purdy ugly, someone painted it with a brush. All I what is engine, yes it is a 721 block. Make me a offer. Class Racer were dreams come true. Tom
