RK Motorsports has some fun stuff to look at every now and then. https://www.rkmotors.com/vehicles?page=1

That Galaxie is pretty sexy. Can I ask what something like that cost to build? Is that full roll cage nice interior as well?

It is a ful cage. High end leather and carpet interior. 1068 hp on 91 octane @11 lbs of boost. It has a lot of nice parts in it. It got six pages in HotRod a few months ago.

Lonnie was a good guy. I remember when he had a purple one. He died within the last 5-7 years when he fell through the roof of his building while clearing out some water that had accumulated from rain.

San Gabriel Valley, probably around 1996(?), a guy named Lonnie had a red one. Big chevy, big front exit fenderwell headers...and BIG nitrous setup. At LACR they did and import vs domestic thing, fastest from each ladder squared off in the final. Can't remember the number, but that red Javelin dropped a full second in the final round, beating some peripheral port chainsaw thing.

That white Mustang is so sexy, idk about the exhaust on the street tho. Would be rad while idling in driveway etc but ...... also better hope that seat slides back far enough for you!

The Nova tho is absolutely mind blowing but are you really ready for another NRE

Neither. Stock looking muscle car sleeper with 1000hp turbo motor under the hood and a smooth idle. Walk softly and carry a big stick.

Holy Fuck Balls! I didn't realize it had a SOHC motor repro as the starting point! Knew the twin turbos and EFI, but all that blinded me to the valve covers!

The other thing, 3x5 .187 wall main rails!? Surely added to the structural integrity. Beautiful car. The amount of prep work that goes into a black custom is hard for some to understand. They see a black car and think it looks nice. I see 7ft long 1/4 panels and think of the block sanding. Too bad it's going for sale, hopefully the new owner drives it some.
