That's real nice Fred. What was your inspiration for the colour? Fred says "Tarpaulen Blue", why do you ask?

Never said it was true, just reading what's painted on the car, then again you can't believe everything you read (LOL)

Went and looked up the NHRA record for Q/Stock. NHRA has changed much with their stock classes and oddly this information is not dated. This is supposed to be the current record for Q/Stock. The 13.65 is for automatic transmissions the 13.80 for manuals. The 8.62 and 8.71 are 1/8 mile runs. The 17.00 pounds per horsepower seems to give this car a light weight of 3145 pounds or so based on 185 advertised stock horsepower. I think this is why back in the day models like sedan deliveries were popular because they had nothing inside them but two seats.

Q/S​

17.00 lbs/hp​

13.65​

13.80​

8.62​

8.71​
