Default finally finished

well its been finished for about month and a half. just now getting around to posting some info.

i bought my project on valentines day 08 from mustang mendez. he had got a good start on the chassis but i tore it back down to nothing and changed a few things.

i put a stroked 351w and a 5 speed in it, with an 8.8 rear. i have been to the dragstrip twice and its run a best of a 10.60 @ 127mph on 315-35-17 drag radials.

its a fun car to drive, seems to get the attention of really old or really young women
when someone asks what kind of car it is, i just tell them its an MG with a body kit on it

Talking Welcome!

Stretch,
Are you around the Austin area? I don't think I have seen your car if you are. Your car looks great! If you are interested in hooking up with the Austin Cobra Club, shoot me a PM and I'll send you the info. No dues just fun!
