    Thanks, guys!
    I am sure there has been well over $100,000 spent to get this car where it is today! Even though I have done most of the work myself.
    Here are a few more photos of the interior.

    $50k for a turnkey race car is a pretty sweet deal.

    What rear end? Gear ratio? Could it be street driven with drag radials and street gears?

    Not inline but did it start out as an original '70 Stage 1 car?

    The VIN is a 70 GS big block car. I do not have the build sheet. It is strictly a race car.

    I'm breaking the "no comments on a for sale thread" rule for the second time in a year. Fifty lashes. I only wish I had a spare $50K...this would be mine.

    No, I bought it from him in 2015 when his health started declining.
    I have spent a lot of time and money updating and getting it to where it is today.

    Received the 5 point seat belt harness back from RJS yesterday (12/8). I reinstalled them this morning. Recertification date is June, 2026.

    Received the front shocks back from AFCO today (1/12/24). They rebuilt them and revalved the compression.
