Lightbulb New Delimia. Friend says he'll sell me or TIm C his 67 Fairlane!

Okay, To challenge my decision making skills even more, my friend Eric has complicated my problem.

I posted a few weeks back about my friend with the BAD A$$ 67 Fairlane not selling his car, well he called me today and said he'd sell it to me or TIM C only, for 5000$.

Cheaper than a Factory Five Replica Cobra, not as stylish, but one BAD MOTHER of a car. The motor alone probably has over that much in it. All it needs is a clutch to run.

It needs a carpet, a dash, some wiring (which I could do easily), some Tuning up (again I could do easily), rear bumper, and some TLC to make it presentable.

Its got a new Carolina Blue paint job, Original almost perfect seats and door panels. Factory Power Disc Brakes, Factory 4:11's and traction bars with the Drag Pack suspension. Toploader Four Speed, 9 inch locker, ONE HELL OF A BUILT UP 390. Accoding to Desk top Dyno it was pushing over 500 HP and almost as much Torque with a 600 CFM Carb.

I would add, A roll cage with two sets of Five point harness's, a bigger carb (About 800 CFM) and upgrade to electronic ignition.

NO rust, no wrecks, no exhaust, an no damaged glass. What more could you ask for out of a classic Muscle car.

AC Cobra, or Drag racing mid 11 second 390 Fairlane that could probably pick the front wheels off the ground with slicks? ARGHHHHH. Man life is full of difficult decisions.

To give you an idea of how quick it is, we raced a New 2000 FireHawk with it. 3 people in the Fairlane, Eric had to double clutched between shifts, spun through all four gears, only had the 65-70 percent of the throttle Open (Carb linkage all out of whack. Found that out two weeks after), with TIming on TDC, and still hung right beside him.
