    That's just dirt cheap for a flopper...ante up the cost to build that...someone's gonna get a deal for sure.

    looks like its more of a sportsman series car rather than a nitro or alcohol car, I say this because of the headers, maybe I'm wrong, but it would be fun to have and race in nostalgia classes.

    you'd definitely have a crowd around your pit if you showed up with that at your local bracket race.:)

    IF - big 'IF' someone was in the market for a Funny Car, THAT would have to be THE deal of the century! :eek:

    Unfortunately, it would only be useful for someone willing to do a lot of traveling to big races. It's not every Friday and Saturday night our local tracks hold Funny Car races.

    I still can't get over the price though. Wow.

    that one looks more like a pro-stocker that the body lifts on... I'd rather get one of Danny Millers new bodies if ya were going that route.

    i guess that if i were interested (which i'm not) i would have to ask when the car was built and if the chassis would still certify. not much good to spend $11,000 on a car that's not legal to run anywhere.:huh:

    I'd love to have it, just to have it. Take it to car shows & have everyone drooling over it...
