A Friend just made an interesting purchase!

A Beautiful "Clone" of the '71 Mark Donohue Trans Am Champion road race car!!! It is well done and also legal to drive on the street! Main difference is a 401 versus an original Traco 304 Trans Am engine. Sounds healthy in the video!

Think it will look good next to his gorgeous Pewter Pro/Touring '73 AMX????

I read somewhere a quote by Mark Donahue that that car was the most beautiful of his trans am cars. I see why.

AND he has the ’70 Mark Donohue called the “Crush”

He will need to build a clone of this! LOL!

Scott,

He sent me a short video yesterday. Sadly the lack of mufflers overwhelmed the camera Mic! LOL!
It's his FIRST drive of the car before Winter
