    It was burgundy with gold decals. Had the 403 Olds engine (6.6L), full hard top (1 of 2500 that year), uni-body kit, the original honeycomb rims, the interior was replaced right after I bought it, since it had been in a fire. It was a complete frame up restoration. I dig out some pics for ya'll. It would pass anything but a gas station.

    Here are the raw numbers: 550 horsepower at 6200 rpm. 550 pound-feet of torque at 4000 rpm. They're only official "estimates," but as the engine under the new CTS-V's power-domed hood is fundamentally the same as the supercharged V-8 that's credited with 620-plus horsepower and at least 600 pound-feet in the hot new Corvette ZR1, you can safely assume the real SAE-certified figures will be close. "I'm confident we'll disappoint nobody with the numbers," says Ed Piatek, the CTS-V's program engineering manager.


    AMG's E63 Benz nails 60 mph in 4.3 seconds. The new CTS-V weighs about the same and has at least 43 more horses and 85 pound-feet more torque.

    hes def. not letting it go haha. the motor is now completely built and has been machine worked. now the frame is setting on 55 gallon drum barrels ready to be powder-coated. he had to order new wheels though, one of the wheels had bent spokes where the previous owner hit a light pole. didnt do much body damage, but screwed the wheel all to hell.
