In the off season I also upgraded to a Powermaster 150Amp one wire Alternator and moved the remote shut off up and directly into the battery box. Super Bright LED lamps in all exterior lights and interior courtesy lamps. I have all the bulbs to do the instrument cluster next.
I’m still interested in finding a new owner for the Street Sleeper. Reasonable offers would be entertained. I just don’t have the time to play with it enough and it really needs to be driving and drag racing. Cheers! MarkO
Bump. Still available to make a deal. I still haven’t made it to the track to prove the 60’ / quarter mile since the M23 upgrade and see what the weight reduction with the Supertricks will do. Needless to say I haven’t hit the nitrous yet either. I may have driven it three times in 2020. I do treasure the car but wanting to scale down as I reprioritize life. Cheers!
With the purchase of the vehicle comes the option to take a mint 70 skylark hood, the Powersteering complete setup I took off to put on the manual steering box, the front hood latch assembly complete, both sets of wheels and tires, the factory am radio, the 54 gal jug of Renegade fuel, the two extra nitrous bottles (full) all the carb and nitrous tuning parts jets etc, NIB MSD caps and rotors, 4 sets of NIB spark plugs, all the receipts and an owners manual I prepared that includes all the details systems, and literature from all the parts and a very nice heavy duty car cover. I have over $45,000 itemized receipts and the oldest new part has less than 1,000 miles on them.
Just an FYI, I met Mark and got a ride in his street sleeper. He is a perfectionist, keeps meticulous records of everything he's done to this car.... lots of cash in parts and hours of labor.... GLWS Mark!
Bump for fall of 2022. Life just doesn’t let me get time I hit the track to prove the car since the trans and other upgrades. Car and parts stash is always for sale for right deal. It will be a sad day to see it go but just have too many other priorities that I rather focus on. let’s make a deal! Have a fresh unopened jug of Renegade 110+ that goes with the car if buyer wants it.
I just submitted the ad to BAT, should be a couple weeks before it shows up. Anyone want to make an offer please do. Won’t hurt my feelings. I had to take some pics for larger file size for the BAT ad and thought I'd throw them on here. Cheers! MarkO
If you’ve followed the build thread you’ll know that All the rust spots were saturated with phosphoric acid when the body was off to kill the cancer. I wanted to leave the patina and did the touch the body or late 80’s repaint.
And the comments - starts off with complaining about cutting a hood. Someone else mentioned using a Ford scoop on the hood. They're the most interesting, but also the most cringe-worthy.
