I know a few of you had them. Unfortunately I sold all of mine when I moved into an apartment, and had to empty the parents back yard. LOL

I had a 1972 240Z, had the original faded blue metallic pain with some hideous rear window louvers. Grey primer spots all over the body, the car looked like pure crap. Under the hood though lay a beautiful I-6 L24 block, bored out, with a late model 280Z head milled to the hilt, ported, polished, Chevy valves, a nice high lift ISKY cam sat under the cover. Tilton dual disk clutch, on a lightened flywheel, MSD ignition, triple side draft Delortos. The car got 9 miles to the gallon on a good day. Tri-mil equal length headers, 2 1/2" pipe to the rear with a glass pack. Car also had full poly urethane bushings, with Tokico 5 way shocks, and motorsport springs.

Most people would hear the car lopping at the light, and just figured it was pos with a bad miss. But when the light turned green there was no catching the little beast. I walked 5.0 Mustangs, and a few classic camaros. I lost to a vette once. I knew it was pumped, I was just hoping for luck, and it was not with me. He didn't spank me, I certainly surprised the eff out of him though LOL.

I also had a 23 window rag top bus, that would do high 12s to low 13s in the quarter. Used to cruise it to the swap meets at Sears Point (infineon) with the needle tapping the 0 peg (approximately 100).

I also had a 67 GT390 4spd Fastback Mustang, but it was not a sleeper. It looked fast, sounded fast, and was fast LOL.

i have a stock on the outside 3000gt vr4. but i got about 20k under the hood. Last time we dynoed it it put 450 to all 4 wheels. it runs the 1/4 in 11.7 at about 120mph. people think they are kind of fast but mine is a lot faster.

when there is about 1min 28 sec left in the video that is me with the black shirt and hat..haha

and that is my vr4 on the dyno...

see I always knew that V8s could be fast. Thus the challenge, take this old car, leave it looking like a beater, then just crank the hilt out of it under the hood.

A friend of mine that helped me build a lot of VWs had a 63 beetle. Same story, ugly as sin, with stock wheels. At the light though with these little Honda's running around he could launch that bug so hard the rear apron would hit the asphalt and it didn't have seat belts! LOL

He curently is running a 10 second Myers Manx that he takes to hill climbs, and auto crosses

My Pops Dart is kind of a sleeper. It's only got a 340 under the hood with a dual plane and 850,.... around 600hp (Mmad built) 

My Satellite would be a sleeper if it didn't have all those stickers all over it 

Dude I love those cars! Had a 1969 roadrunner convertible with a 383...My high school ride was a '55 chevy 4dr bel-air wagon with a pumped up 283 with 2 afb 4's and a 700r4 tranny...Sold that 8 years ago for a 1970 GS 455 convertible I still have... After high school I found a 1966 Tempest that looked bone stock but had an old 455 outta a station wagon only 8.5-1 compression ratio and a peg leg and I gutted everything out of it and it ran a 13.4 with 9' slicks. The '31 pick-up has a 327 4 speed and we hooked up with a racer everyone one here knows and he has a badass slammed fenderless sedan and we pulled up next to each other merging on the freeway last sat after a show in Phoenix...Wild badass weekend... The '31 pulled him but I think he may have missed a gear which is surprising considering who was driving that sedan...Nothing like pulling into Scottsdale fashion square, the night before the superbowl in Phoenix, and having 4 ratrods pull in and get reserved valet in front of the lambo's and vettes ...The '87 GN has been my dream car since high school and it just this morning clicked 27K miles...Finally bought the steel for the front end of the '67 Chevy II SS gasser project that's been on hold...

Damn sounds like you've had alot of cars 

If you're looking for another '66 Tempest my pops has a 4 speed car in need for restortation in his back yard 

326? Any rust and how much? How much for the Sat?

76 Ford F250, 460 1050 Dominator custom cam ground in the good ole San Fernando Valley by the secret shop in Burbank. Locals will know who I'm talking about. Hydraulic roller everything. Built up C6 transmission very don't remember but I'm pretty sure it was either a 2800 or 3800 stall converter. Custom Rewarder Headers. 4" lift Dana 60 front and rear. 4.10 gearing 37 or 38" PJ dirt grips. 618RWHP 12.3 @114 1/4mile at LACR. good truck. Looked big and slow, sure as shit didn't sound slow.

How bout some pics fellers?

This gives true meaning to the term "Rolling Big Power." 600 some at the tires and nearly 700 at the prop shaft out of a Teague Marine 520.


Ass end. Notice the 18 ton crane shackles on the receiver.


Idle set about 1400rpms. Only thing I've heard uncorked that sounds better was a Pro-stock 500 inch Hemi running wide open headers. Those are 50 series flowmasters.
Don't worry that's WD40 on the ground.

Always been a twelve.3 was the fastest. Averaged 12.6

With the altitude correction on paper, the best it could have done was an 11.9. So I'm not sure where the mid 11's came from? My buddy's Chevelle is doing mid 11's with a lockup converter and slicks.
