    Well after a long process the body on the dragster is complete going to tear the car down this week and bring the chassis to be certified. Look what else showed up at the shop in a swap deal. The Agent Orange dragster from Maine yes two front engine cars. It might be time for theropy. Im going to have my 14 year old nephew drive the gasoline car.

    Well I had to put the fugitive dragster on the back burner for a while. Its almost feb and I will need something to race this summer so I put a new body on the agent orange car and did a few chassis updates. It is a super clean little car and has a very mild small block in it so I can get some quality seat time. Looking to help my friend with his front engine comp car this summer. so see you at a east coast nostalgia event this summer,
