Post by: crider on March 01, 2016, 03:34:09 PM: This is the chassis that was for sale in the classifieds on here. I'm really happy with the car so far. The chassis is nicely put together with a 21 inch hoop to fit a fat boy...lol 178 wheelbase. I used to bracket race a blown alky funny car so I'm going to use up my leftover engine pieces. It's a 526 bbc with a glide. I'm still undecided as to whether it's going to have a carb or injection. I'm just looking to put together something simple and low maintenance.
