'63 Split Window LT5 at Dallas Mecum
I think this goes off on Saturday. He's wanting $190k for it. It's pumped up to 440 HP and it is beautiful in person:

Re: '63 Split Window LT5 at Dallas Mecum
Was the 440hp achieved with or without that air intake?

Not only that with side pipes by the time the headers go into the collector its about 9-12 inches past the front of the pipes. He had to double back and bring the exhaust forward to make it go into the pipes. Super nice work but major back pressure point. If I go again I'll take a pic.

Re: '63 Split Window LT5 at Dallas Mecum
Remember the days when it was "cool" to start cutting and install a single back glass?
There are many stories such as this. Nice car, just doesnt do it for me. Except for the engine. But I appreciate the work that went into it. Even more if the owner did his own work. But whoever did it, did their job well.
