A really nice piece!
I like the mirrors.
I race an B1 Arrow 30 years ago but we
extended the Wheelbase 15 inches.

Pure D Sexy right there! Only way that picture is better is if the front wheels are off the ground!

I believe the wheelbase has been extended on this one but I can’t remember what the previous owner said by how much.
 
That’s a slick piece. What are you going to do with it?

gonna have a blast with it! probably going to tame it down just a bit at first until I get use to it. It's considerably faster than Old Goat I and I don't want to get myself into trouble by blasting away right out of the gate. Also have to learn how to use that voodoo magic delay box so I can give the local super pro boys some headaches!
 
Nice car, I seen it up for sale and figured it wouldn't last long for at the asking price.
 
Beautiful car inside and out. Intake looks like W2 Pro Dominator to me except runners have no divides in casting? I'd like to hear the story. Badass car for sure. Beautiful!
 
Only thing I dislike is the flex hose on the radiator. Only thing I think needs looked at is it looks like the transmission lines are snaking down in the bellhousing area. That should be a very light weight car. Good luck with it.

Yeah, that’s a W2 Pro Dominator welded up and ported to fit W5 heads. Very cool. IMO the PD is a better TR than the M1 was. I had some ideas I wanted to try on the M1 but sold all that crap and stopped racing.
 
That looks pretty nice. I probably should have kept that old arrow I had that wouldn't do a burn out in loose gravel lol
