New 71 Drag car

Post by RON71rr » Sat Dec 18, 2010 6:45 pm

Been lurking around since I sold my roadrunner last year. Just brought home my new 71" Plymouth home. It is a 71' Sattelite Sebring Plus, cloned into a GTX drag car. Past owner put the 72" style stripes and 72' fenders on it. It has a 440, 727, and a 4:56:1 8 3/4 Should be lots of fun ! Happy Holidays , Ron

Sometimes I get to feeling that if Xmas, Fathers Day and my Birthday did not exist, then aftershave too would not exist.
