Default what car should i build?

im deciding what kind of car i should use to build a drag car...

i already have a 23 altered with a 540 in it...

this will be sbc powered and be back/halfed and using a 9 inch..

it has to be a coupe...dont really car about anything else


dont want any g-bodies,no camaros,no trucks....i have already had them

im leaning towards a 01 stratus coupe thats on cl for 1k....

but give me some ideas driven...

i have everything at my shop to build this besides a body.....

so post some ideas...

try finding a 240z or 280z. I would also do a SC300 but they are too heavy.
