New engine installed ready to go, just needs carb and turbo
This was raced in the vintage class so all parts needed to be pre-1970

Probably the most practical land speed record car for daily driving that you will ever find at that price.
Of course another 40 mph until it’s competitive with riding mowers.
Gone already. I guess it really is a fast car!
that window reflection of the dude in some low ridin hip huggers scares me !
This made me lol…
