F-85 sport coupe with pillar
only 2500 of them made
Not the 442 but those are being auctioned off for $$$
It is a fun car to drive around in!
It is a little backwards from the mitsubishi eclipse but I get way more thumbs up and people wanting to stop and talk about the car.
My goal is to make it handle well, new Upper control arms, disk brakes, traction bars. Eventually I want to autocross the car and have it keep up with the sport cars.
As to be different (most do a LS block) I am sticking with the Oldsmobile small block. I located a DX block. Olds made a diesel block (weird) but it can be converted to gas. It is a very tough block with thick webs. All the high HP drag racers are using it.
Fun car, had to post
