Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Chrome wheels, drag slicks, 4 speed, chrome wheels, drag slicks, Falcon buckets, S W gauges, dual quads, cold air intake. Factory lightweight body panels and aluminum bumpers. Books say 427 425hp, but the thump of the open exhaust says more like 600hp. Poor old repaint over erratic fiberglass panels. Sound but aged old interior. Who cares It sounds marvelous and must pull like an elephant. No Reserve.

Market commentary

This is an heroic motor housed in a piece of period drag racing history. Its presence will never be overlooked with that engine pounding away through the open exhaust. It might be a bit of a handful on the street, though. Offered here in 1993 where it was a $40,000 no sale. Times have changed.
