Frame of restored. Frame is fully boxed in and notched for 10 inch wide wheels. Extra reinforcing done where needed. Cage is NHRA cerified to 8.50 (certification expires next year).

Raced this car in the TSM series for two years, in that short time it was one of the fastesr TSM cars. Alot of help from Cal Hartline with the tune which has never been above 27 PSI on this car.

The car has a reputation of always hooking, it drives really nice, extremely straight down the track, and is easy to drive.

Currently the engine is broke. The crank rotates but the camshaft does not. I havve not hade time to fully investigate it.
