Leave as race cars or restore to original?

[HEMI-ITIS]

Make them a better race car a better street car
no reason you can't do both

I'd side with a day 2 car either way, race or street/strip

good luck & happy Moparing

No reason you can't have a street driven car that perform well at the track!

Here is one(yeah it's not a mopar).My brother had back in 1970.
LS6 454 4 speed 4.10 gears from the factory. Yep Day 2 car with all the speed shop(remember those?) goodies. Never drove it because back we were from they got stolen quite often. Sat in the garage for over 40 years.1,092. Yep that's all the miles. After he died this January we started cleaning up and found some of the original parts along with the Cragar S/S wheels. Now the new owner is going to sell,but what to do? Restore to factory or leave it as Day 2 ? He has been told to do nothing don't even clean it and sell as found. He still is deciding.
It's a tough call and you got a great find with those cars !!!

I know I'm going to probably get a bunch of **** for this but man that's a badass looking car I like that with the Cragars.

The car went to a new owner in Tennessee.

I just joined FBBO, as I just bought my first B body, and my third pro street. This car was originally a drag car, but the previous owner turned it to Pro Street. I just like the combo of street and strip, if you like.

My car is an original drag car. Still has the 1960's class winner sticker in the rear window. I drive it like I stole it.
