Listing Info:
<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=1 face="Verdana" id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>Up for acution is this stunning black fully restrored and very rare Hi Po Super Cyclone. Born,raised and raced in Southern California. Has original 289/271 Hi Po engine with top loader 4 speed. Larger diameter driveshaft with larger and stronger U bolts. 9" rear and 4:11 gears (now has 3:89) Former owner for safety and roadability added 65 Mustang power steering and front disc brakes. For ease of shifting a Hurst shifter replaced the Ford unit. He also added period correct Tri-Y headers with dual exhaust. Traction bars and driveshaft strap were added for occassional fun at drag strip. Mileage is believe to be original, since car was not driven for many years(history available,call). This Cyclone would be impossible to restore or duplicated for under 45K. Notice from pictures, prevous owner did not like a lot of chrome. Really gives car a more racer look. Pictures show pretty much the overall excellent condition of car. Panels below trunk have minor specking of the anodized alumimum, as does the front of rear window frames. Radio out for repair. I invite your or second party inspection of car before final bidding. Car is located in Salida CO 81201 about 140 miles SW of Denver CO. I can be contacted at 719-539-4707 or 719-221-2716 (cell). Thanks for looking ED.This car is in the 40K class with the built sheet documentation, but since it is not available I'am relisting it at a very fair buy it now price.Other Hi Po items to look for. All Hi Po were special ordered by DSO . This was reflected by 6 numbers on data plate(527208). All others had only 2 numbers. "Export Braces" or shock tower braces were bolted on instead of welded on. Also there was a 16x2 inch reenforcement plate on firewall just under the bolts of the braces. The 4 Speed is a cast iron top loader RUG-AV. Special stiffer rear springs Part #255-E4 with "ISO-Clamp and thick rubber insulators. 9 inch with tapered rear axle housing. Larger MasterCylinder and Harmonic balancer. Large 5 riveted 4 blade fan surrounded by a all metal shourd. PCV instead of the normal draft tube on 225 HP cars. Large Autolite carb with manual choke (Looks factory installed). Heads have #21, solid lifters, dual point distributor. etc. Come inspect this car and you will be convinced as I was, that it is a correct 289/271 Hi Po Cyclone.
