Tom is correct. This is a limited production Hurst Hemi Barracuda aimed at SS/A or SS/AA. It is a lightweight, fiberglass front fenders, hood, acid dipped doors and bumpers, gutted interior, Race Hemi, Dana, etc. FROM THE FACTORY! When I picked it up at Hurst none of the fiberglass parts were even painted. This is a twin to the Sox & Martin Barracuda or if you will the Hemi Darts (Dick Landy etc. ) of the same age.
In its day with old technology and old tires etc, they consistently turned low 10's. When we redid it I had the valve train, cam, ignition and a few other items updated. I also used 2004 rubber for tires (big difference). The curent versions of this car in competition today run in the 8's. I was very happy with the high 9's but am way off the pace of current stuff.
Still would be fun to run a ZL-1.
