I got the dragster that I posted earlier the history I posted is correct and I have a little more I will post as soon as I get it sorted out. It is a real nice piece, Mike Sforza of S&P speed built 3 chassis that I believe are copies of a Garlets chassis. It is pretty light. It was raced as a S/P car with a SBC as late as 1999/2000 and was certified to 7.50. I have some photo's of it from 1969/70 as a AA/FD at NY National speedway but they need to be scanned in  to the computer. I will add info as I find more. Pictures are of the last ran version.

More info on this car, it was built and raced by Mike Sforza some of you older racers from the east coast may remember the shop "Henny's Welding" in Jamaica NY Mike was a partner there then at S and P Speed also in Jamaica. He built the "Patrician" dragster that now resides in the Garlets museum. He also built "The Pride of the East" with partner  Dick Yarkin it is in Rodding and Restyling june 1955.
