Haha.. We'll see , but it would be for our local S/SS group. No 6-7 g.p. tour....for sure.

I was going to put this in the main section, but I didn't want Perrone and his wife to see it and get all torqued off.

I can think of at least two good W/Stockers that are just too darn heavy @ 24 lbs.
One is EFI too.
Write me, only if you would actually do it, within a reasonable amount of time.

Yeah, come on Mark. We could always use another car in the group. I'm sure you know of a car or two that could be an affordable rocket.

So Mark, where did this come from?

Dick , see above.
On the other end of the spectrum, Ron Seibenick has a Fox hatchback that runs under in W/Stock. I haven't talked to him about it, but it has to be way heavy for the class.

How about a 1980 Cutlass Cruiser wagon with a 260 V8 @ 135 hp ?

Actually guys,
The FWD thread got me thinking that some guys might not mind leaving first and being chased with a budget car, but want no part of a FWD car..Can't say that I blame them ;-)

Sounds like this deal has "Dime Rocket" written all over it!

Oh, oh, wait a minute, umm............. this sounds like a real high dollar deal that would cost the Racers a fortune to get into. It would probably lead to lots of high end sponsorship involvement and make the NHRA BOD a fortune!!! As a little guy, I don't like it. ................

How about a 3rd Generation Camaro or Firebird? I know the 1985's came with a Iron Duke 151 TBI Almost started the project years back, parts were collected, still have, like a Mini-Spool for a 7.5 rear with 4:56 gears..all types of blocks..even a couple with Chevy bellhousing bolt patterns. Would have fell into W , maybe a little heavy too..took to track once just as it was..ran 19.60's..slipped on a smaller rear tire, ran a 19.30..
