Cyclone was actually built by Mercury, the best being a 1970 with the Super CJ 429 375 horse power engine. I know about these cars very well, because I used to race them at Atco 30 years ago with my 1970 Buick GS that had a 455 Stage 1 engine. We would run high 13's bone stock, at around 102-104 MPH which was pretty quick back then considering tire technology was way behind the kind of horsepower we had, those were the days, John H.

It looks pretty nice. I like the ground effect around the exhaust, with some 4" tips it would really look sweet.

Don't forget about the Comet Cyclone.



That guy could have done some good with all that money if he had an L to spend it on.
