That was my motivation with the Achieva. I've done a few more things to the car this year. Too much life keeps getting in the way. Race time just hasn't fit in my schedule. Hopefully next year is better, maybe early spring I can get back to a track.

That was the fun part of it for me. Making a few changes and seeing how the car performed. Slow cars are just as much fun as fast cars, if you approach them the right way. It's also fun when you beat somebody with a decent car or show up some kid in his street car and he comes over and wants to see the car that just beat him.

once upon a time I had a 74 matador coupe with a 304/727....would have made an unusual u/sa car.....too bad a boulder had to go thru the roof.....honest,it did...

no idea if it had potential or not to be competitive..

Tom,
Someone in California a few years ago ran a '74 Matador wagon in U with the 304 - 2V combo. I believe it was posted here in the classified section for sale a while back.

Etown and Atco if I remember right but I think it was 1997.

Yes, but it was in V/SA, I'm pretty sure.

Ed F won a divisional in T/SA also

My r/u was to that little Pa mountain man at Delmar in 2000 I believe.That's when I learned you can't womp a six cylinder car in the lights.

Del-Mar and Atco in 2003 as a U/SA car, when I was somebody. I liked running the car in U because it was a lot easier and more fun to drive but I lost a bunch against the index. Please don't ask me what I've done lately.

Hey Joe Huestis this is Willie Lamprecht,
You told me you still had a 262 ( or 267?) from the Monza, besides the Monza what other body combinations would that fit in?
