Nope. It popped up on a FB page. It’s located in New Hampshire I thought that rear end was cool That’s the first I’ve seen the chassis research hubs Thought you folks here would like it. I’d like to hear comments on the front end set up.
It is interesting. It would be fun to display. Either as-is or restored. It would be fun to clean up and make a cacklefest car out of. Would I make it driveable and let one of my kids make a pass in it? NO
Absolutely. Those chassis took a beating Nice crackle fest ride. Its has a couple cool parts and would make a nice template for duplication but what would be changed for a track to let ya hammer on it though
sitting with the family jewels very close to a diff seems scary enough. But that close to a banjo. Ouch What was done to these things to handle the hp? Or were they so easy to find ya didn’t care much if ya broke em.
Re. the term "cacklefest" I was the announcer at the 2021 WV Drag Racer Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony and Cruise-In / Car Show. We had a pair of FED's with blown hemi's on nitro. I was calling their "fire-up" a cacklefest when I was approached by a vey famous chassis builder who told me to not use that term to describe the firing of the engines. He went on to say that NHRA had actually copyrighted that phrase and that he had heard of "cease and desist" letters going to promoters using the term to describe their local events. I quickly changed my description to "they are going to cackle the cars" and haven't received a letter from NHRA, so I guess I did ok.
