We like sleepers here at LS1tech. We like sleepers just as much as we like fully blown turbo ludicrous Camaros.

Yet, there’s just something about a sleeper that’s way cooler than your average hot-rod. This next car though, it takes being a sleeper to a whole other level.

What you see before you is a 1981 Ford Fairmont wagon. It’s brown, from the 80s, and looks like your grandmother would drive to and from church in it.

In other words, it looks like a stock 1981 Ford Fairmont. Yet, peak under the hood, and there’s a monster inside that engine bay. An LS1 monster to be exact, which just so happens to also be helped along with a 150 shot of nitrous.

According to the owner, key4, he recently ran this sleeper wagon for the first time with the nitrous setup and it proved to be quite a quick competitor when it clocked the 1/8 mile in just 6 seconds. In addition to the nitrous, it has a LS1 with a 223/227 cam, ported, and a 4.10 gear.

Suffice it to say, it’s ridiculously fast, and I’d hate to be the guy pulling up to the lights and thinking I could smoke this little grandmother mobile.
