The Supercar Registry - Day 2 Show Car.

I found this SS in our local classifieds.After thinking about it a while I realized I knew the car.A friend of mine built it in the early 80s.It's not a numbers/original car.It was done specificly as a show car to run the circuit.Some of the procedures done on this car are fairly dated.This is one of those cars that sat on a pedastel and rotated over a bunch or mirrors.Here is a message I sent to the seller.I'm too lazy to rewrite it.:)What would you do with the car if you bought it?

Hello Dave.
I'm fairly sure it's the same car.I always remember it was odd that he had a 427 instead of a 454.If the block looks like it was ground/sanded down smooth to remove all the casting marks and sort of orange peal that castings have on the outside.They spent over a hundred hours on the block and heads getting them smooth.

The body was probably the straightest car I've ever seem.Almost perfect.The car was prepared by a guy named Brian.He and his father had a shop on Howden RD back in the 80s.It was a high end paint shop.Only guys with lots of money went there.He was one of the best.He died tragicly in his 40s of a heart attack.

The car was built specificly as a show car to run the circuit.It won best paint at almost every show.I don't remember the red gas tank.If the paint on the tank is very nice and not just a spray bomb then they did it.The car was shipped in an enclosed trailer where ever it went.Like I said.The black paint was absolutly flawless.The guy that owned the car had way too much money.Everything on the car was top notch and the best money could buy.
