Still working on this one............he is still buying more parts........working on hood # three right now. One metal hood and metal scoop for running a nostatia class, on fiberglass hood to run another class... and one for the Hilborn Injection..........
A never ending thing....he was suppose to put it together, now he wants me too....oh boy:rolleyes:
Don't think I don't like it though, like going back in time...:D
1965 Dodge Coronet Factory Hemi Race Car...one of 99. Since this is a later factory altered wheel base car, it is more like one of ten.

Those two GM cars had a private test session at Edgewater ,here in Cincinnati,last year.
I had an invite to check them out.
They had a long haired blonde Female as the test driver too.
An Aussie mate of mine,Pete Burgin, was behind a big part of the project.
His base is in Indianapolis,Ind.
:D :D :o :o ;)

them wheelie bars on the front bumper kinda threw um for a loop at toll booths, but the future looks like this about it until the signiture "George Jetson" hover commute is perfected. ;) fun out.

Fun, I'm still laughing!!
Pretty amazing that they will only "sponsor" a Pro Stock car, but will "build/support" front drive grociery getters!
Ken, no ****??
The article said that one of the drivers was a woman.
They are running 2 classes with them, both turbocharged, one inter cooled, one not.
The cooled car is making around 700 HP's from 2+ liters :eek:
Still can't look at em with out laughing when you see the big slicks on the front and bike tires on the back!!:D
Set up almost excat oppositte of a rear drive car.
In one of the pictures you can see the battery and the fuel cell setting on the front wheels to aid traction.
Still "AIN'T RIGHT"
So Ken, is the boat here yet??:eek:
