Not real sure on the interior, though. that's not for me
Me and white don't get along

What ground clearance do you have?
Engine specs.........please?

Thanx guys i have owned it for about three years now and pretty much bought it as a painted shell and have done everything else to it the motor isnt that wild its just a stock 351 bottom end with a mild cam and ported heads with a funnelweb hise rise, 725 demon and mallory ignition system it makes about 300 at the treads not super tuff but plenty for the street as for pics the engine bay isnt that great (its still a work in progress) but i'll post up some pics anyway ground clearance is 50mm at the header flanges but it does have air shocks in the rear so i can raise it a little if needed


this pic is of the first time round i built it

Thats seriously nice, im not usually a fan of yellow cars or silver rims (im a chrome man generally) but i like it, its done well, not overdone and wanky.
