    I am thinking with the standard 401/325bhp he will get 0-60 in 7.8 sec, and the quater mile in 16.6 sec @ 86 mph.

    Just my two cents :laugh:

    Need more details on the car

    I'm assuming it is a 425 with dual quads (like a riv GS)?
    Th400 or 4-speed
    Axle ratio? Posi?

    By the way, very cool car.

    I heard that the horn from the Belle Isle boat is up for sale. It would make the perfect finishing touch here :cool:

    Always thought a 64-65 dual quad Riviera would be a great Pure Stock car....or street rod. Could you get a 4 speed in them? There used to be a tubbed out 66 Riv around Livonia I saw it at the Wilson Barn show, Novi Cruise, and Woodward one time. It had been tailpiped real hard, so he decided to back half it, and just kinda took off from there. Beautiful car.

    I know the Riv used the A body shell, but did it have an extended frame up front like the later party barge Monte's and Grand Prix?

    So Tom, where did the 350 HO Firebird go? Will we see it at Pure Stock anyway?
