Thanks for sharing Ted... ... that's a dare-to-be-different front suspension. I'd be tempted too if I was closer.

Man, thats pretty cool.

Been a lot of interesting stuff on ebay as of late.  Couple of belly tankers went for $1,500 and less in the last month.

Mine are not big enough to make a pass in that. Cool but would have to be for cackle car IMO.
Relecting obama is like shooting right foot because it did not hurt enough when you shot left foot

Fair price for what it is/was. Makes a good bluprint for someone that wants somthing different to cackle with. Just begs for oddball engine like a fuel burning straight-8 flathead.

Not me, not trying to be an a**, but that looks like a couple of farmers built it, and a couple of barns that they built fell down on it. It sure is different in design. Now I  :-X
Just keep the same amount of stuff on the right
as there is on the left. Seeing straight ahead is highly overrated....

Its called diversity, For me as a student of older dragsters, you would be amazed at the weird designs that showed up in the early to mid '60s. Would I build it like that for current competion--no! as a cackle or Eagle Field, its different which is cool.
