Add says it's just under 600HP 400sbc,, with a glide and depending on how much they lightened things,, ought to be an easy mid-10 would be my guess. I'm curious how long the bed welded to the cab and filled is going to look that nice. I LIKE the looks of it,, but have a feeling there would be enough flexing to be cracking if it runs hard enough to make use of the motor.

Not a 'bad' deal at $13,5k rolling, and + $6K for a 600HP smallblock. LOTS of work went into that for SURE! But I know one thing,, if I could get $13,5k rolling,, my 66 would be a MEMORY!!!

I'm not sure..
Maybe. How far is Wisconsin from Illinois?
Well in one of the videos below says in the details:
1960 Chevy looks like it's going to flip at the launch, Wisconsin International Raceway Kaukauna.
Notice sparks when the rear bumper hits the track.
