I love you guys!  Grin

It's a car that nobody knows anything about. Won't give too much away as i don't want to tempt fate (like submarine attack mid-Atlantic...), but it's fresh, all the right bits in the motor and trans and had a full body-off rebuild.

And in answer to Mr Volksman, one way or another, yes... Wink

In more ways than you think.
After the Buddy Hale car was parted out, Matt sold it.  The new owner has put the car whole again and is driving it.

Matt parted that car out? Any reason why? Did the new owner put it back together the way Hale built it? I always liked that car.

Matt and/or the PO.  Unknown why. The car has a well built gearbox with a 2275 fed by IDAs.  Fake BRMs complete the look.

Matt told me he sold it to somebody in BC.

That car was pretty neat, and fast too.  Before the VW Classic in 2001, Buddy and I took the car for a quick spin around the neighborhood.  He got really loose, and I thought we were going to hit the curb as we drifted.  All I could think was, I hope I'm thrown out the sunroof, clear of the car when it rolls.  He saved it, and we drove home about 15mph shaking like leaves and giggling like schoolgirls

Roger Crawford from Heads Up! razzed Buddy one day when they were cc'ing the heads.  "This thing run on Arco 87?"  Car was going 11.90's with 9-1 compression.  Buddy thought the motor was setup on kill.

The last time I saw the car was when we delivered it to Redding to it's then new owner.

Are you sure about that Bruce.  As I recall, Buddy never ran that car on the strip.

SO KS, whats up?

Buddy ran it in DRKC at Sac in '02.  Broke it in Vegas the next month.  Sold it to Deaf Jimmy the next month.  Somewhere I've got a stack of buildup pics.  The creme pan still is an oddity to me. And Dave, Buddy tried to kill me, not Bruce.
