I usually don't want more than one of a particular car, but today I'm thinking it would be fun to have a second copy of my Buick Regal GS. Only this one would be set up for Bonneville racing in as a E/PS or possibly F/PS with a destroked motor. That's one venue where a nose heavy pig of a car has a definite advantage over something lighter with more equal weight distribution, and I think front wheel drive might help with the handling at speed as well. Put a Kenny Dutweiler built 3.8 with a centrifugal blower, a Getrag manual transmission re-geared for a 265 mph top end, and the required cage and race seat. For giggles (and ballast), I'd leave it as full an interior as the rules allowed, complete with a Monsoon or Concert Sound II stereo.

I want it just like that Daytona I shot a couple of years ago: rear-drive swapped, Gen III Hemi, Tremec six-speed, and in black with just the slightest hints of chrome.Editor-at-Large at...well, here, of course!

Oh man... now you're reminding me of the beater '89 LeBaron coupe I had in college. A RWD swap on one of those things (and maybe moving the front wheels forward about 8" while you're at it) would be pretty cool.Comment

I've got mine in the garage right now ---- I just wish making 500HP out of a 4 cylinder wasn't such a pain in the arse
