Mark and Tyler Northcutt are a father and son team who started working on Tyler’s 1972 Skylark when Tyler was 15 years old. A total wreck, they stripped it down and rebuilt it as a GSX clone with a small block 350/350 and Tyler was driving it by the time he was 16.

Tyler started getting “Race fever” so they again pulled the car down for a dose of 455 steriods...and this is what they ended up with...a 4000# car that will pull a wheel- and drives back and forth to school in Texas heat!

Buick 464 ci 520hp/570 tq. Edelbrock aluminum heads, SPX intake, 950 proform carb, TH 400 with a switch pitch convertor and a 3.42:1 posi rear end.

Best runs so far are a 7.68@90mph (Abilene 1/8 mile) and 12.40@108 (Penwell 1/4 mile)
