It's rough around the edges , but the major stuff is all there. They put break in miles on the engine, then the thing was parked for two or three years. believe it or not, my wife actually thought it was cool.

Yes. It's a 67' with a 468 full roller big block, gear drive, Turbo 400 trans, narrowed 9" rear...I'm not a huge fan of the prostreet stuff but the deal was to good to pass up.

My heart is with motorcycles. You can fit at least two of them in a single car garage ... Cars take up so much room. If you need to tear anything down you really need a two car garage.

I got my Lexus because I was tired of wrenching on cars...LOL The first month I had it, I saw MrMarks' IS and that was that...Now I'm right back in the thick of it.

The plan is to be at the track late summer. It's going to take a good deal of safetly gear before they'll let me run it there. This thing should do wheelies!
It's close to 1,000HP, In the 800 range with out the bottle...I'll try and get
some good picks this weekend.

I didn't think to many of the Lexus peeps would be into an old car like that
