Well, I got nearly thru with this post, then lost everything, because I had forgot to plug in the charger on my Chromebook.
So, I'll start over. Since this deal is dependent on the sale(or trade) of my bracket car, I may as well give the specs on it, here.
It's a '68 Bird. No title. Not worth putting back on the street. It has sheet metal replacing some of the rusted out floor pan and trunk floor. Has a glass hood with old style flat snorkle scoop. Has all drum brakes, sub-frame connectors, and slapper bars. 12-bolt rear with mini-spool & 4.10 gears. Solid Centerline wheels all around, with short front tires and good 10.8" Phoenix slicks.
Has a TH400, 10" converter, new PST driveshaft, new fuel cell, 2 fresh 34/78 800cca dual terminal batts.
Engine is a '75-'76 455 block, with unported 6x-8 heads, forged rods & pistons, 292 Comp cam/Rhoads lifters, CC roller tip rockers, Torker 2 intake, 750 vac Holley, HEI with MSD rev limiter replacement module, RobbMc 1100 fuel pump with 1/2" line fron cell, Flowkooler water pump, Summit mini starter, 3-tube headers with collector extensions.
Has a flex fan, cheap alum rad, and no shroud. That's about all I can think of for now. The asking price is $10k. OR I'll keep the engine & everything that's bolted to it, and take $5000 for the rest.
It ain't nothin fancy, but should make a decent 1/8 mile footbraker. Should run low to mid 7's, or probably high 11's on a 1/4 mile track. There are several things I'd add or do to it, if I was gonna try to do some serious competitive racing, but it should make a decent pass, as is.
Here are some pics. If anybody wants to see more, I can take more pics. It's right outside under our carport, since I don't have a decent shop now.
