Q:

Missed it at Tech Yesterday, running today.... DAMN!
And apparently, the license plate was protested, so the ballast is now "unstreamlined"---how do you keep the front end of an old Corvette on the ground at 200+mph? Take a look:
And curiously, does anybody know what car (Make/Model)this is:

oh and that is NOT a '74, it has chrome bumpers all the way around, and so that would make it a 68-72.. and it is a convertable.. with a hard top.. how could no one reconise the galant?

I saw Corvette.... Yes, it's earlier than 74, when they integrated those crash bumpers (or 75) and went with the plastic front end.
Didn't even see that originally. I was going to say "who said it was a 74?" but went back and re-read the posts...
Hence, "Aaaaaaaah!"

Not sure what a Galant looks like, but it also looks like a Dodge Shadow.
Black, bumperless, 78 Z with MSA superturbo system, K/N cone filter, ported intake, and exhaust manifolds.....15.9 @87 mph.
A:

shadow and galant are the same car produced for the american market only. Basically like the eclipse and talon.
Progress:
Z32 Had to sell for DD 06 Sentra :(
S30 one of these days I will get around to putting it all back together.
A:

it also looks like a ford tempo

dude you are stupid.. go look at a shadow and a galant.. just because in the early 90's mitsu and chrysler were in bed together, DOES NOT mean that every 4 banger car that chrysler made was mitsu.. a galant is pure DSM... nothing chrysler about it.. and the shadow is pure chrysler.. and it has the famous 2.2 or 2.5 sohc TBI chrylsler engine

G54B Mitsu Engine is 2L, and the markings on the car say it's the 2L class, so that kinda makes sense....
