Fair amount of work done to this car. Listed under race cars, not street legal. Anyone checked it out?

i was asking about it yesterday.
the guy does not have any specs on the rebuild.
i think he has only owned it for a few months.

Nice car.
What makes a '73 transmission "the best year?" Sideshift of course, but why is the 73 better than 74-76? /hijack

I know about the engine smog differences, but didn't know there was smog stuff related to the tranny. Thanks for the reminder about the info link.

Hmm, just joined this forum. I live in Norman - if anyone is seriously looking at this car I suppose I could go give it a look-see.
