My eyes, my eyes!! 
Havent seen that paint scheme before - I presume this is the one that Dave Wright had in the 80's, with the blue & silver 'Roadrunner' graphics?
That had the same scoop & a missing front bumper

I remember that car with the nice Blue and Silver paint job. Anyone remember what times it used to run?

It was a super gas car, if memory serves it used to run low 10's regularly, high 9's from time to time, this car should be due out again soon, looks amazing now

My all time favourite. Always good for four foot wheelies.

I thought it started life as a custom with candy green paint and murals of a mountain range down the side. Sure I still got a Custom Car from the mid '70s with it in it, must have a look

Yes, Dave is restoring it. It's not the custom painted one you're thinking of, that's the infamous "Lord of the Rings" hemi car. This one was a much abused street racer at that time.Adrian Worman wrote:Ain't this being restored by DaveB?Jerry Smith wrote:It was a super gas car, if memory serves it used to run low 10's regularly, high 9's from time to time, this car should be due out again soon, looks amazing now
