79 Tbird, T-tops, 351W May 04, 2006, 06:03:09 PM Im posting this for a local guy. I thought there might be some interest in it over here. This is not mine but if you reply here i will relay the info to him untill i get his e-mail address. You can also see his add for it at http://www.streetracingdayton.com/forum/showthread.php?t=16579$350He says it has new brakes, calipers and pads. It is currently down due to fuel delivery. he says it will run off starting fluid or if you run a line to a can from the fuel pump but for some reason its not getting fuel from the tank. here are a couple pics Quote Selected

I'll have one someday. If I had a nice powerstroke truck and a gooseneck trailer, I'd be on my way to Dayton. Quote Selected
