    Now that is a "fitted" roll bar a thing of beauty.

    We know it's "inspired" by drag racing so the question is are you going to race it?

    I might hit up a few of the nastalgic drags with the car when its done. It would be nice to see what its capable of.

    Double Damn! Love the roll bar and the Pushbar, is it going to be filled/weighted? Great fab work, 'scribed!

    We made it so that it can be filled with lead shot if needed.

    Can't tell if this is a fast looking show car or a nice looking race car. Either way, can't wait to see how it progresses.
