I would love to keep it but im having to many problems with my back I  need a door car Way to hard getting in and out for me
Sorry to hear that, I went through back problems three years ago and had someone drive the dragster while I recovered. It killed me to watch it go down the track.

Except for the full body, that is a twin to my old Woody Gilmore car.  Short wheelbase, engine way back, a shorty Glide and cutting the coupler down to 4" was the only way to get everything to fit.
