But, with that said, there’s a lot of teenage nostalgia in it, and he wanted it to be just right with it. He says it’ll run 9’s at the strip.
As for built not bought, I’ve done every single mod on my car myself. If I had the opportunity to do it all again, I wouldn’t touch a thing on my own and would pay a shop to do everything, save for the easy things. Nothing like laying under a rusty exhaust manifold for a half hour, and then heading straight to the bathroom to wash your hands and pick metal out of your eyes.

9's at the strip isn't a friendly street car. That is a dedicated drag car. Maybe pulling your leg a bit?
And eye protection is cheap.
