Default Baddest Black C3 Coupe.....I think so....You decide

Well, if you like bigger than normal big blocks that still manage to make more than 1 hp per cid, side pipes, wide wheels, flares, roll cages, L88 hoods, jet black paint, ice cold Vintage A/C, electric actuated headlights, and a HUGE host of other neat go fast goodies......then check this out!

At long last, Dave Bacher's 71 big block coupe is back on the street. This has been the sister project to Killer over the last couple of years. Dave has been working his fingers to the bone to get this bad boy ready in time to DRIVE it to the 50th next week! Yes, I said DRIVE it!

Grab a cold drink, and snack, sit back and relax while you view the last couple of years of blood, sweat, tears, and more money than anybody wants to count of bigger block bliss.......

If you like what you see, drop Dave a note and let him know.

This Saturday we will cruise my 69 and his side by side for the very first official time at the local Saturday night cruise in. We are going to turn some heads!!!!!!!

Mystery, the cruise in's in Jax alternate locations around town every Sat nite through the months, and if it's a 5th Sat. we go north to Fernandina, near Georgia border....

this Sat nite it will be at the K mart parking lot in Orange Park, a south west burb of Jax, and just south of the I295 and Blanding Blvd. intersection on the right side as you head back south to Middleburg....

easy find, hotrods all OVER the joint, see them coming and going all nite long....Jax is CARTOWN USA.....

Dave does not want to give all of his secrets away. Let's just say...it ain't stock. You would hit the DART on the HEAD if you guessed it was as fast as a really big DART..........Or bigger by a hundred cubes or so than your usual big block. :D

For a second there I thought you were talking about my car :lol: :rofl: :lolg: I love what you and Dave have done to that 71 coupe, it really means business! Are you still going to BG and Nashville? I'm flying out tomorrow, will take your mobile number with me and will try to contact you at some point during next week/ weekend :cheers:
