Spectacular build! Love the body!

Special build to my brother (coxbros1) and me. We raced against this actual car in the late 80s and always really liked it. and called the guy that owned it and the track back then in next town over. He still had it! We bought it immediately and did a complete resto. All original except body and ser...

They were, this is much better setup.

You can buy repo mci decals and have it look box art again. Make it happen! Nice rebuild.

That blackfoot really impressed with that lemans 240 st. Thats the combo I raced in late 80s.

Revolution yellow labels are about as cool as it comes, i agree. Bought a "killer" on ebay for $100 US, needed a rebuild and cut. Its double strong!!

We have both. Cat is great but the top cat drives so damn good. Not sure why it didnt fair better in the 80s

Classic info! How much was Salute back then?

Its the car we both wanted almost as bad as an Avante back in the day. Another added to the collection.

Nice example!

Great build Lobo, well deserved. On to the next one.

Mod ones had black cans.

Looks awsome! What body is that again?

240s is lemans overall greatest motor, considering money, looks, power, etc.

Shock dampening, LOL!
