About: About: My husband started building this car in 1981. He built the car in less than a year with many sleepless nights.The engine is a full dress blown big block chevy with Venola pistons, four bolt mains, blue printed and balanced, full race Crane camchaft, open chamber heads, 671 GMC blower, vertex magneto and 2 Holly 650 carbs. Transmission is a competition turbo by Bernies Automatics. Many of the specialt parts including blower scoop, belt guard, console, rotors and fiberglass dash were made in his cellar machine shop. The car also has power sunroof,windows,doors,seats, brakes and antenna. The rear end is a '65 Vette posi-traction with chrome calipers and control arms. Front suspension chomed CAE with Hallcraft wire spoke wheels. We have had alot of fun over the years and my hubby will always be a true street rodder. Thanks, cher kaczkowski, Schenectady, N.Y.
