2 Pics of the Gale Banks twin turbo 84 bird!

browsing the web and I came across these photos. The car is an 84 modified with an all iron block 350 V8. Twin turboed of course.

He built it to try to hit 200 mph...

Enjoy the pics! :hail:

Taken from a webpage about this car:

"There are two large steel tanks under the hatchback, one for water to cool the engine and one for ice to feed the intercoolers."

That first pic is awesome. Just different wheels, swapped hood, and a paint job as far as I can tell, but still awesome. What's up with thise fake air ducts in the next pic? Still awesome though. 84 is my favorite thirdgen year after 82. :rockon:
