Why not send one over to Taiwan (Chinese metal is too cheap to last) and have replica's made, it's not NOS, but it also wouldnt cost $1200.
Taiwan is responsible for manufacturing complete muscle car bodies for people to build. I belie ve I saw the factory while taking a train on my second day there. I looked out the window at a parking lot at a factory, and there I saw what looked like a 71 Nova ,and several other muscle car bodies!! I wanted the train to have a malfunction so I could get a closer look.

If only our head port work was alot better from the factory, our cars would have so much more potential without a turbo, but as far as being one of the fastest F-bodies, WOOT!!


FYI, If I remember correctly, wasent the TTA manufactured from the factory with the 3.8T motor, where as the Firehawk was sent to SLP to be transformed, so really the Firehawk was a aftermarket performance car that obtained those numbers right? As to where the TTA made those numbers right outta the factory line.
