Jim Woods has a Chevy-2 post car for sale over on Racing Junk site. It is a 283-220hp with a PG trans. There is a picture of the car in the sale ad also.

Yes, i emailed about that car also. 8000 is that not cheap for that car? Where did it go?

Don't know where it went but when it first surfaced I had to fight the urge (I'm a MOPAR or no car kind of guy). Suspect Jim sold it because of his new IHRA role (could not happen to a nicer and more qualified person) but was shocked he priced it that cheap. Somebody got a proven winner.

Ronnie, I think it was reasonable, depending on what you want to do with it. It has a broken, twisted 10 Bolt in it, so you could spend some money and fix it, but probably better off to get a complete 12 Bolt unit from Moser, MW, etc. Once that is done you've probably got a 30 under piece (NHRA Index), maybe a bit more. Next, you got to put a metric 200 in it, conv. driveshaft, crossmember, etc. Then you'll be going fast enough to just be getting beat by a car length in Heads-Up runs. So now it will be better motor time(Insert Needle Here). So I think it was reasonable, Not Free!!
