Stalker #47

[lowflyer]

Built over the summer of 2005, Stalker #47 features a 3.4 Chevy crate engine with some go-fast goodies, backed up by an S10 Chevy 5 speed. The rear end is a 3.42 S10 unit with a Torsen limited slip.

I had driven a friend's Super 7 back in the early '60's but had given up on finding one that I would now fit in. The Stalker is designed for "real American" wide-bodies.

Autocrossed occasionally, but really a nice weather, weekend toy.

The most unique mods I've made are custom leather wrapped seats, much more in keeping with a '60's British sports car, and a portable two place intercom which allows for easy communication with my wife, plus the added advantage of reducing the wind/engine noise and helping to keep my hat on!

Recent upgrades have been a set of Superlite wheels, very similar to the Minilites.

Been lurking on the forum for a while now, glad to be on board.http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1986651660_stalker140.jpghttp://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1918076524_stalker157.jpghttp://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/648543053_stalker182.jpg

thanks for posting up... tell us more about the intercom system.

I purchased a 2 position, portable aircraft intercom system off of Ebay, and later got a pair of low cost airplane headsets.

The intercom unit plugs into the cigarette lighter, or can be powered by an internal 9V battery. The unit is VOX or voice operated, so it's live all the time. I've even upgraded it with a patch cable that plugs into one end and allows me to hook up a Sony Walkman cassette player/radio.

One caution, not all states are as "reasonable" as Arizona about allowing such things, although it can't be much worse than being in your "grown up" car, with the windows up, radio going, A/C roaring and talking on your cell phone!
