There was one for sale in Alberta not long ago. Blown
BBF I think. Turn key for 13,000 I think.

JrFuel Hayden:
I ran into a racer that killed his motor on the burn-out in Bakersfield and the started banned the racer from the track because he could not get out of the car by himself. Don't buy/ build cars that are too small for the drivers.

afaulk:
I'll bet he could have gotten out if the sucker was on fire. :o

dreracecar:
Before you do anything, Make sure it has a current SFI chassis tag on it or at least an expired one.(no changes in chassis spec in years) If it does not (never had one) then hold off and have it inspected by NHRA before you buy.Never trust the seller!!!! You may be buying yourself trouble
