WTB: Ls1 or 6.0 block
#5
Thats actually Montey Berny's PSCA car Bertha 2.... I am not 100% sure what happened to it. He has since moved on to a full Glass car with a round tube chassis.
The one in the picture (Bertha2) is an all steel Body 25.2 Round Tube Back half car. 14-71 Supercharged 526 BBC On Alcohol Through a lenco.
Went in the low 200 and I think he broke in the 6.90's with it...
All steel body, doors, fenders, and so on, except the Hood and the deck lid which are Fiberglass repops. OEM Glass all the way around, steel 1 pc bumpers, stock front susspension, even has the origianl rear veiw mirror inside. Also has the stock factory gauges in the original dash... This car is the true definition of a real Pro Street car.
The oringal Bertha that he campaigned in the early to mid ninetys is What attracted me to the 55 chevy's. Basically the same type of car back then. He campaigned it but could never get to finals. He sold the the car to a fellow racer whom Wrecked a few races later. The car was restored back race condition and sold to a private collector in the florida area. Nearly 10 years later he figured he would give it another go around when PSCA Started here on the West Coast... He raced it for a few seasons and I believe even won a season with it but in order to compete and stay competative He really needed to step up his game as far as the car goes and He finally gave in and went for an all out tube chassis car with a Glass Body.
Any way Good luck there are plenty of blocks out there. Ironicly I just sold my last 2 today... I only have 1 Short block left and I am not sure when I will be getting any more.
