    Could not post this into the race car photo gallery for some reason but thought many of you may appreciate the craftsmanship. I know I did!

    When I was looking for my current Maverick, one of the people I talked to in Forida sent me the pic.

    I've seen that car run in Atlanta a while back. It's been a drag car since day 1 according to the owner. I have some more photos of it.

    Nice car but it needs an updated set of wheels. I'm not a big fan of those old solid Cragars.
