Anybody know nything about this car?
« on: September 04, 2016, 12:20:47 PM »
Hi this is my first post and I was just wondering if anybody knows anything about this car. I am looking at shorty dragster bodies and was puzzled about this car.  I realize the rear end is outside the cage which would indicate a altered. The body threw me off.  Does it look like it work as a dragster? Much to my embarrassment set my straight. Thanks..

It is a Neil & Parks car. Pete Dove and Tom Kirkbride are owners. We run together in the Nostalgia quick series. Additional pictures : http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fnostalgiadragworld.com%2Fv4i9-nqs-cid-ricks-8-13-16.php&h=GAQErqREQ
