I saw a hellcat that was stripped of the A/C, stereo. power brakes, cruise control. they put old shitty drum brakes on it and took the fuel injection off and put holley carb on it. pulled the overdrive trans and put a 727 in. the thing ran low 11's, got 6mpg and cruised at 3300 rpm at 60 mph and had to adjust the carb every time the wind blew a different direction. they pulled the plush leather bolstered seats and installed a vinyl bench seat.
THAT CAR WAS IMPRESSIVE.
This probably doesn't impress you either.
Probably not! Cause it looks like she could've been foreign made with "plastic wonders" ;)

Its not even an A-body. Yawn. It should be in some other venue.
Used to be when you looked at a car most of its weight was steel and the parts were rebuildable. It is a disposable world these days. Plastic and wire.
Where will these cars be in 50, no lets say 25 years.
Not worth being rebuilt outdated undesirables? Like most all american performance cars from any era other than the gen II hemi time span.
The buick grand national is one of the few that can claim fame for increasing in value in a similar manor to the 426 cars. Sad example but just to show it can be done by making
a car factory fast.
The hellcats do qualify as fast for a factory built car.
I may be wrong but I don't see these cars to increase in value by 95% within the next
25 years like our hemi muscle cars that they loosely mimick nor do I see them as a great deal or investment at 65,000.00. I can't afford one anyway so point is moot.
Good for the guys that can pick one up if they like. Could be fun for awile.
No, but this probably does, USA built car and man.
This probably doesn't impress you either.:tool:
Let's compare..... could you follow the Hellcat across interstate 80 doing 80 + miles per hour... for hours without overheating????? and give your passenger ice cold A/C?????? and get the same gas mileage???? and have the same handling if a deer ran in front of you???? and have air bags should you have a accident???? Have cruise control???? power seats????? And still run 11 flat in 100% street form including tires and exhaust??? And bring the same money should you ebay them in the same week??---- ahhhhh, the resale value..... hmmmmm...... and you think staying under 30k to run 11's in a duster is accomplishing something?????? lol. And which car do you think would pick up the hot chicks, your duster or a Hellcat???? Ummmm.... I think when we look at every aspect, your a LOSER with a capital L.. at least on this subject. Nothing personal, my friend$65k ??my duster has been 11.00's for less then 30k...complete built car..all you "homers" keep lovin' those mexican hemi imported plastic wonders
Are you kidding? This is a home run for Stroked340. Hands down a winner. LMAO!
Now, back to that chic-A-dee up top.......
