  1. I built a 1/24 scale version of that car back in 1991, using a Garlits Swamp Rat 30 kit. On April 20,1993, I went to the Super Shops store on South Cobb Drive in Smyrna, Georgia. Eddie and Ercie, along with Fuzzy and Jana Carter, were signing autographs and talking to everyone who stopped by. The Southern Nationals were being held that weekend at Atlanta Dragway. He kindly signed my model and Fuzzy told me, "nice car."  That Sunday, Eddie won the race in Top Fuel. It was extra special because it was my birthday. He went on to win the 1993 Top Fuel World Championship at season's end. 

    I don't mean to write so much, but Eddie Hill is not only the nicest drag racer I ever met, but he is also a fine human being. You can do no wrong by building a replica of his "Nuclear Banana." I am really looking forward to watching you build your version of the car. Have fun!
