SCOTT DUNN? Update on Big Red?

I haven't heard anything since just after you purchased it. How is it running? What upgrades have you done? Have you been to the track?

Last time I talked to Scott, he was in the process of doing a trans conversion to a T400 and some other small things. But I think the truck is on hold for a little while.

Sal,

How are your toys doing? Last I knew you were selling the Cobra II on Ebay and had that blue one in your sig on Ebay also.
(like the one in the middle of your sig pic) I know you had a cobra on order a while ago... ever receive it?


I'm always curious to see what toys the tuners have...

I pretty much got rid of everything earlier in the year. The 05 Cobra went to a car collector who buys magazine cover cars in NC. The Thundersnake project went to a guy in Nevada, but I just sold it as a roller, the Lightning motor stayed with me. The van is gone too.

Right now I have black Police Interceptor as my everyday vehicle, and will be putting a 600hp built Lightning motor with Whipple on top in it very soon. I also have my Shelby Cobra, and I have a bike. Other than that, not much going on.

Heh. I've busted my butt my entire life to own this car, and my dream has finally come true as I put the car on the road two weeks ago. Haven't stopped smiling since.

C'mon give some spec about the car? Engine, Trans, Performance numbers...

I know you worked your @$$ off for that car and no doubt you deserve it, but I'm damn jealous!

i don't know the specs i think 396.
but he really paid attention to detail. every nut and bolt is an original i think.
i remember him pointing out some of the detail (months ago and i am a burnout so don't remember everything.) When i saw it the motor was on a stand and the car looked bad ***. i say that pic does not do justice.
