2001 Mustang a decent car for stock?

Phillip marvetz · 10-31-2011, 01:22 PM

You might look into Jim Johnston's S/S Chevelle, It's priced right as a entry level car and probably wouldn't take much to convert to a stocker if you have your heart set on running stock.
If you have any interest in doing a Mopar I know of a couple Aspens that are available locally, 1 wagon and a 2 door. My wagon has gone 11.80s with the 360 that was built in 1993 and I haven't touched the short block since. .
Knowing your driving style I would suggest you look into buying a done A-D car though. Cost more to get into but if you don't like the racing you wont lose to much when you sell. Or maybe build that 56 you have? There are guy's on this forum that have the engine parts you would need for it.

Where do you live? The car is a natural "I" add weight to "J" Stocker or if you live close to an IHRA track it's a natural "E" add weight to "F" pure stock.

FYI...

I have a 1969 Impala being restored in Jersy Shore, Pennsylvania.
Have owned the car since 1975 and has been a Stocker since 1972
It has been a 4 year lingering project.

Complete Frame up and needs appx $4000 to finish project.
Invested a lot of money getting it put together.
Lack time and space to store it when it gets finished.

Have Complete 350/255 Budd Rowe engine, TCI Converter, TurboAction Trans.
Two Qjets Carbs, WA Lee and Bobby Warren, one rebuilt by Val Headworth
Wheels, Slicks...2bbl manifold and carb.. everything!

My time is very tight.
I own a IT business, focused on my Daughters Soccer and Refing Soccer games as well.
Willing to make a very good deal and especailly make my wife happy.
Currently running my street car, a 95 Impala SS in G/PS Car Number 2056
