Item Location (City/State):Ca

Price:30K

Description: So here we go... Old Yeller is for sale I would like to ask 30.



Spec's are as follows

392 ci windsor roughly 500 hp and 500 torque, brodix heads Scatt bottom end

Jerico trans Freshened up. hasn't been driven since it has been freshened

Aluminum drive shaft and back up steel drive shaft

Fresh Wilwood brakes. only a few races on calipers

Tilton pedal assembly. Pedal assembly is on a slider to adjust for drivers instead of seat.

Custom Zero scrub style front suspension. Billet aluminum spindles. Howe aluminum hubs.

4 way adjustable JRI shocks front

double adjustable JRI rear shocks

Full floater rear end

3 Link rear suspension with watts link

extra sway front bars

There is a lot more tech data for the guy who buys it. I don't want to spill the beans for the new owner. That's where the real goodies are.



Who ever buys this car will be getting a ton of work in a simple package. FYI the car does not have a set of front wheels nor a clutch. The clutch broke up before nationals so I had to borrow one. When I sold the old front suspension and created the new system I was going to buy the new front wheels with that money but the the guy skipped town without ever paying me, so since then I have been borrowing wheels. I also have several sets of tires to go with it. Nearly brand new Avons with 8 laps, a set of Hoosiers and a set of Good year rains.





This car has won 4 nationals. I believe it was 2nd pax at nationals over all two years ago. Multiple american autocross championships. It's not to bad of a car to buy. It is also my first car. The also has the record for the largest gap between first and second in a class 30 or more at Nationals. 2.7 sec. last year it won by just a bit over 2 sec.

Yes this car has had a ton of history with our family. That magazine was one of the early ones. It was also a BFG sponsored car in the eighties in some ESPN commercials .

Greg, I think you should get it. You could really use a Yellow Mustang track car.
