12 second cruiser classic, no pics.

Damnit, I vote for ban!

Sounds like a good time! Lug conversion, steering, or brakes upgraded?

It has willwood on all four corners (manual set up) Maier racing leaf in the back with bilsteins, 3.5” aluminum driveshaft, welded in sub frame connectors with a bunch of “Shelby” front bracing plates, I can’t remember the springs I used in the front, borgeson steering box upgrade, aluminum radiator with dual electric fans, carb on it, classic instruments gauges, stainless custom headers to fit the dam borgeson steering box, full stainless 2.5” exhaust. Interior all new with new weatherstripping.

Dang!! Love this thing!
When I was a Kid (late 80's-early 90's) I hated the coupes, but now, man they have grown on me!
Not to mention the size is right, the weight is low and parts availability is HUGE!
It must be a BLAST to drive!

yea, I definitely prefer the fastback, but that still looks good.

The fact that it gets driven the right way adds to its appeal.

It’s fun to drive. I just weighed it and with full tank it was 2960.

Your right about the parts. That’s one of the reason I picked it up. It is also really easy to work on and I did all the work myself. I have a battery relocation kit I’m going to do soon. People go crazy over the classics these days.
