69 buick GS vs. 350z

First kill with my new car.

I just bought a 69 buick GS to restore(yes I like old school cars too.)

Anyway not a kill with my 7 but with my project car I just bought for $900.
I was driving down lindbergh near highway 40 late a couple nights ago on my way to my cousins shop were Im going to paint my car. A new 350z droptop pulled up next to me and the guy started reving his engine. I didnt even drive my GS hard at all yet so figured I go ahead and see what it would do. I reved up a little bit and he took off. I took off and passed him up like he was parked he tried to catch up but didnt have a chance. I slowed down at 90 lookd in the mirror and he was abot 8 car lentghs behind me. I slowed down to let him catch up and go at it again and he turned off reving his engine. I Thought the 350zs would have more *****; what a dissapointment.

I forgot, what does a GS run in it? 455?

Not sure with the 69 year.

Thats nice.

Its kinda the color I was thinking about painting my car. I was gonna go with a blue or black. How many horses does that goat have. havent dynoed my car yet. It has a 72gsx 455. and pulls like crazy.

You like hot rods?

I just inherited a 33 ford hot rod from my late father that he built. The engine is crap. I was thinking about a 20bt for it. I dont know if people would get mad at me for that though.

I've had it bored and stroked
Last time my mate took it down to the Runs it pulled 12.6 [without NOS]
I'm estimating just over or just under 315 rear wheel power

Those classic muscle cars might handle like an ox cart, but in a straight line don't mess with them. It's like never pick a fight with a fat person. They are strong as can be because they haul all that stuff around all the time. And never make fun of a retard, they have that retard strength and can rip your limbs off. And never pick on a nerdy whimp, they are probably packing. Ya, best not to mess with anyone.
