83 Gt ttop 5.0 5speed.

Its getting stripped for paint now, not sure what motor i will put in it but i would like to do something different than the usual windsor nitrous combo, possible carbd mod motor or maybe a blowthru small block?

I will have pics Sat. I pick it up then, bought it last weekend just no time to get it. It is a big tire car, has 29" tall by 18" wide in the back. 9" rear, coilovers, it is a race car that needs to be turned into a streetcar.

It is in my barn, just got home with it. I took alot of pics but it will not download to my computer for some reason. If I can get the pics to work I will start a thread to show them. This car is very light, still has the stickers on the tires. Car is blue and the cage is silver, has some sort of tank and I push a button to put a fire out, I forgot what is is called.
