Altered or Front Engine Dragster
GlennLever:
I understand the length definition, but if you are not sitting on top of the rear end to me it isn't and FED
H.G. Wells:
Glenn, I am with you.
The first one of these I ever saw in West Texas the guy called a "Funster" back half of a funny and they grafter a dragster front end on. It also had a coupe body.
The green one with the bantam body in the first pick is about the slickest one I have ever seen.
I am struggling in choosing another FED or an altered and I would not want one of these. Maybe I need both?

Started out as a 125" S&W funny chassis and is currently at a 190". Some have said dragster and others altered. I would like to think at 190" it is a dragster. If anyone knows anything about it let me know. Going to contact the seller here shortly. Thanks Scott

Scott G:
Spoke with him on the phone and it is the same guy. Started out as a late 70's fuel car at 125". Setup as pictured as a 105 and us now a 190. Still has the clip for a 125"er. Thanks for the post.
George:
I'm not a fan of a long wheelbase with a wide body. It's different for sure.
