Exterior and Interior
This 1964 BTM Cheetah Coupe – Clarence Dixon Tribute looks like no other race car, with its squat stance, black paint job, and mere 1,700 pound weight. The car rides on a set of chunky race tires, and is underpinned by a full tube frame chassis with a 90-inch wheelbase. You’ll no doubt have noticed its extreme rearward positioning of the cab, almost over the rear wheels, granting it a sort of dragster stance. The wide body outlook with vented hood further accentuates this image. Yet, this race rocket comes with head and taillamps, which means you might be able to drive it on the road in some places. Lift up one of those stunning gullwing doors and you’ll be greeted by a very racy interior in this 1964 BTM Cheetah Coupe – Clarence Dixon Tribute. There are two low-back seats in black leather, a wood-rimmed steering wheel and a white gear shift knob. The gauges are all analog affairs and there’s precious little in terms of creature comforts on offer.
Engine
There’s a 427ci V8 in L88 spec, paired with a Muncie 4-speed gearbox with no driveline. A Corvette independent rear end with 4.11 gears and positraction runs the show. The engine also enjoys BTM 2.5-inch headers into 4-inch tubes for a characteristic V8 roar. It runs on 110 alcohol, so be aware of that. You’ve also got 4-wheel disc brakes, and coilovers for all corners.
