Scratchbuilt springs and tube axle I've got a better picture on Imgur but can't get it over here for some reason.

#277 arrived in the Tarheel State today, good issue.

Very nice looking modified, great color scheme. I can almost hear the gears turning in the other teams brains when you pull it into the pits.

Sweet little Porsche, some really nice body work.

Saw this in the VA parking lot this afternoon:

Those rear wheels appear to be true "reversed" rims the way they were done in the 50's and 60's. Which kit did you source them from?

Definitely an interesting concept. I remember a few years back a real 1:1 dragcar builder used three 351 Cleveland heads to make a head for his six-cylinder powered car. He cut the front two chambers off one, the middle two from another, and the rear two from another. He used some form of exotic pressure-brazing concept to put them all together and bolted it to a big-bore Ford 6 cylinder. Can't remember induction used, but supposedly it worked pretty well. That being said - why not an Ardun 4 cylinder.

Cool little car, very classic lines. Just looking at it with the fenders would make a neat gasser and without an awesome AA/altered. Looking forward to the finished project.

Some super nice detail work on one of FoMoCo's finest bodies. Just wondering if you are going to do anything about the mold lines on the front bumper.

Excellent build, everything just looks right about it. I am sitting here drooling over what I could do with something like that if I could find one in a barn.

Stunning work, absolutely beautiful.

Really cool looking Corvair, like that color. Some very nice scratchbuilding also.

Some pretty nice pieces, but you can toss those MRE's in the garbage.

Excellent work on these builds. As said earlier this style funny car are my favorites, you could actually compare their looks to a 1:1. Nice paint work on all three.
