Heres the 1st set of piks its an 85. Took me 7 months to build. I did it all my self except the bedliner which is crappy and I wish I wouldve done. I'm shure you can tell its bagged and fully shaved. The tail gate needs repainting and I'm waitin on my orange and black seat for it. Its got a 350 sbc in it, about to build a big block for it this winter. I'm gonna redo the whole thing in about 3 months and put some tribal graphix on it and stock floor body drop it (finally). Well heres some piks.

do it right the first time, rather than "finishing" it just to tear it apart in 3 mos.

Cause auto body class was letting out and had to paint it before summer or I couldnt use the paint boothe till the next year (my senior year) and I wanted it for summer. + everything I need to paint it was free long as I did it at school.

we just moved the fender-wells up with brackets since they all bolt in and out, and made a bridge cover with an old jeep sign, lol, its free, and we have a 5 ft break so, you build wth what you have..

There seems to be a theme here.That works for me. Cheap is good but free is better. It looks like you did an awesome job.....

I see you aren't afraid to cut some sheet metal. Nice work...

This is my super comp dragster. It has a 468 chevy big block. Should run low 8s in the quarter this year. I've been drag racing since I was 8 in a junior dragster ( 54 event wins), div 4 champ. Now I'm in a super comp car last year was my first year in it and I came in 3rd overall in points.

WOW! That's very impressive....

sounds like a damned good reason to do it to me.

not everyone here is a HS student with opportunities like that.

Looked great at Slamboree.

Looks real nice. Good job, especially in only 7 months. From what I could tell in the pics, the metal fabbing looks great. But, I'm confused on why the 4-link had to be installed inboard of the frame rails. Is it a Chassis Tech thing?

BB,eh? ... (built) like the 468 BB in your dragster?

Good Job.

Nice. It looks good for a kid in high school, trust me, I'm in high school, and mines a pos.
