so after watching and hearing more about the motownmuscle pinks car... what does everything think about a dirt cheap spare parts carbed drag car.

options:
t-bird
early80's camaro
g-body
anythign else full frame and cheap running.

left field options
240sx
ae86 corrolla


first choices would be spare parts cheap chevy 350 or 302 on spray... last 2 would be 4's but built different.

would really really like a car thats a nasty sleeper that's all i care about... im putting the serious money into a talon right now to run as a street/strip fwd car but would still liek something rwd v8 and dirt bone cheap.
 
oh come on noone ever thinks abotu this?? ropling up in the nasty car that sounds insane and rips off 10's like its nothing??
 
I plan on doing this over the winter.

I know I'm gunna lose my mind this summer with no car so I plan on puttin togther a shit pile for 2k and ahve it run good lol


I got a few 302's laying around I know where a good set of heads are cheap. lil nitrous keep it a 5 speed car, no cage nothing fancy just a old 4 cylinder car converted prob.

Should be able to make a nice lil 10sec rip that way
 
In reality it's never cheap to build any drag car. All the little stuff and weird ass fabrication that somehow gets involved ends up costing enough to make the cheap car not so cheap.
 
^LOL i hear that... more the beater aproach than the cheap aproach... i never plan on anything cheap running better than 12's... mostly due to safety reasons.but damnit i can try
