Projects Body style mod for Sr Dragster

[Dolmetsch]

Here is a better photo. I worked on the metal windshield this afternoon. I have it rough cut and fitted. Have a busy day tomorrow but perhaps if I get quiet before 3 PM I will get that done too. I have really enjoyed this whole deal and am happy with how it is to this point.

Done! Finished.
Windscreen deflector installed. Would rather not have used it but it is in the rule book. Anyway I am liking the new look.

with todays weather in the hi ninties I decided to "oven bake" the new paint. I also installed a set of black panels for the car number to be scribed on with the white shoe polish type markers used at the track. I had asked and recieved permssion previously to run a permanent number SRD1 and had put it on the scoop sides but the number of times it got missed was frustrating . The final straw was a week ago last fri when I went to the test and tune. I had the new panel on and had shot it with one coat but the colour was darker. I ran it anyway. As i pulled up into the staging lanes the official walked over and wrote the number 050 ON MY NEW FRESHLY PAINTED PANEL!!!!!!!!. He then noticed the proper number on the hood scoop and just shrugged and grinned. I made these panels up and painted them for using whatever number they give me. I am checking now to see where on the car I can carry a baseball bat ;>)
I do not plan to put any names or decals on the new body.
