merging the body and chassis









it's mocked up and not too far off.  the hard work is ahead.  cage needs to be changed a little and the wheelbase needs to be stretched 10.7".

RacingJunk.com find from Tony Ave





Tony Ave (road race and former Nascar Driver) had this chassis for sale on RacingJunk.com.  I bought it.

It started with a Craigslist indiscretion

I got the body off craigslist.  There were 2 cars.  I bought them from Paul 'hoonboy' somewhere in souf cacilac

Paul's buddy had a boom lift.  much easier

Parts car post torch

Tom was nice/crazy enough to come along and lend his pick up

got it home and cut off the front to fit it in the basement
