One day a guy flagged me down on 75 asking to buy them. He had a real Saleen and had mangled one of his originals. I got $1500 for the set back in '98!

I eventually put a Dart Jr headed 302 in it with a C4 and a 100-shot. It went 7.38 @ 96 just WALKING out of the hole. It had a really tight converter. I swapped in a T5 and it felt a lot faster, especially out of the gate, but someone stole it before I could run it again.
wow im sorry it got stolen. running low 7s is awesome!

It's not very fast now, but it was okay for the time.

I always dug the front end on the '79 Pace Car / '82 GT. Keep us posted with your mods.

It would make my day if you made a thread of all the old school pictures you have.
