I've had it with all you Cry Babies Whining about the DP cars and the Mustangs.
I just Located our old convertible. It needs a driveline. A, B, or C with a hemi.
And I'm going to build it to compete with the new cars or die trying.
I said trying not crying.

The car is still the same as when we raced it. Minus motor. I'm going to do a motor for it. And get some replacement front parts. Maybe go with the Caltracs. And bars.
The car will only be 45 pounds heavier than when we ran it years ago.

Tex drove it I built and tuned it. It worked out great.
We finished number 2 in Div 1 in 1979 but won the world finals at Ontario, CA.
Then we won the W.R. Grace Cup in 1980

Save a few dollars for a pair of binoculars.....then you will be able to see the Mustangs tailights as he/she drives away from you........You might be able to see the DP with just regular glasses....

A lot of smart people told me similar things in 1974. Guess wo was right?
I believe it was someone on here that once said I couldn't make a car run with out Turbo. Well my only turbo is attached to my tow vehicle.
Well Right now I'd be willing to run any DP or Cobra Jet index to index for a large sum of money.
