LATE 60'S FRONT ENGINE DRAGSTER IN ORIGINAL CONDITION
« on: May 09, 2013, 07:14:13 AM »
Posting this from a e-mail I received.


I HAVE A MID TO LATE 60'S FRONT ENGINE DRAGSTER IN ORIGINAL CONDITION
I LAST RACED IT IN THE 70'S
IT IS A DON LONG CHAISE, TOM HANNA BODY AND T. NANCY INTERIOR
THE CAR HAS SIDE AND FRONT WINGS
IT WAS YELLOW W / A CRAZY PAINT JOB
I AM TRYING TO FIND OUT WHO IT WAS ORIGINALLY BUILT FOR
DO YOU HAVE ANY PICTURES OF CARS LIKE THIS
IT IS FOR SALE AND COMES WITH A ERA CORRECT TRAILER

Don Long has complete records of all the cars that he built along with original invoices. A lot of his cars have been checked off the list as to where they are now and the ones that have been destroyed. Call him with the particulars to see where it fits on his list. He charges a small fee for invoice copies, but well worth it.   310-323-4511 best time is late afternoon CA time

paint does not meen anything-- wheel base, motor possision, wings and cannards, hanna body, Nancy interior, His front wheels (offset rim),brakes, things like that show up on his invoice- all those little things nail the ID

Surprisingly--- Long did not build that many cars
