The guy who sold it to him, joe, said he used to take it to englishtown all the time and run 10s constantly. Interesting. a convertable with no roll bar or cage or harness or anything running 10s at englishtown all day long...on street tires...

Sounds like my old problem. I got new battery, new alternator, new starter (not in your case), and the only problems when starting it now is if the battery terminals are corroded. Thats why theres 2-pound-slabs of lithium grease on each terminal
