It does have a lot of nice typical parts such as an aluminum center strange 9", double bead locked narrow welds, strange light weight drag breaks front/rear, now a manafuel (I rebuilt) pump, 2-16 volt batteries, Afco double adjustable coils front/rear, TRZ front cradle with adjustable arms, MWC torque arm, rear adjustable lower control arms (don't remember brand - seems like spohn maybe?) with extension to lower mounts, an aftermarket cased - detachable bell housing powerglide w/PTC converter and a pro trans-break, 2.125 primary tube stainless headers with 4" collectors dumped just behind the front wheel and front/mid plate engine mounting for a big block Chevrolet.
Ive since taken the N2o off the car and fixed the purge and re-piped all the hard lines to both N2o and fuel sides. Rebuilt the carburetor then pulled the engine as it needed freshend up.

Engine out getting new 4.320 pistons.
