General Info
This car has been in the family since brand new. It was purchased by my older brother in Monterey California in 1971 for $3600 out the door. Ten years later the car was given to me as a hand me down in stock condition, while my other brother got a brand new Plymouth Arrow. Little did I know back then that I got the better end of the deal. Over the years I have added many modifications. Needed some more modifications to the suspension for a tuned lower stance - I had Modern Motorsports coil over set installed and am very pleased! They have been so helpful in answering my questions.
That's John Morton with me in the picture. I was fortunate to meet with the BRE Z race car champion (#46) that dominated in the early 1970s. |
