70 AMX - almost yard art status

Whats the number the car to its credit?

9.90 index car but rumor is it's capable of 9.60's.
Not bad for an NA Jeep motor.
Hoping to hit a T&T Friday. Will be lucky to get a 10 out of her at it's an 1/8th mile track...
 
Is that the car you might put the nostalgic crossram intake on?
 
No, the intake ports have been raised pretty dramatically.
The intake has been modified to fit the heads and a dominator.
I don't think there's a reasonable way to fit a cross ram, plus, it would just slow it down (even more than the new driver)!

I’m no AMC guy...but man. Drool.

Edit: I also am no drag guy, but anything that’ll pop wheelies is worth owning in my book.

I've seen video where the original owner/builder was piloting the car.
9.90 index and front tires in the air for the entire run.
Did this to the finals where the car was staged "straight" and he broke out.
Car is really cool, a bit homely but still, really cool.

Nothing high dollar, but almost everything has been modified and it just works.
So far all I've done is a dry hop in front of the house.
Line Lock released at 6k, front is sky bound... think the neighbors where real impressed.
 
Lesson learned... do not take a good running car apart for no reason. Every other car will self destruct as soon as you are past a point of no return.
Out of the 14 cars in the shop, 2 are left running. Had 6 going for awhile.

On the plus side, the race car is making some progress.
It has 1 header now!

Almost looks like a car again, plus this is a great place to store pics.
