Merk Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 (edited) Hi Guys: I bought four of these Revell Mooneyes Dragster frame kits on e-bay. Paid a bit more than the original .69 cent price LOL I will build one as the Mooneyes and mabe one with twin engines and save the rest for later. Searching for the rest of the needed parts now. Here is the frame arriving at the speed shop. I also have a glue bomb resto going on a Willys gasser. Found these wheel and tires for it. The build has started. I can smell the burning rubber in the air now. Thanks, Merks Edited August 10, 2008 by Merk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eshaver Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 Somewhere I remember seeing the Moon Eyes car with a Small block Chevrolet running a crank mounted blower .I also think I saw it somewhere in a not too distant issue of The Rodders Journal magazine. If I'm right, then the Boss Nova should have some of the needed parts you will need to comp[lete your build .The Chrysler engine was a repop accessory from A M T 's 1962 Buick Special wagon. The engine could be built with a crank mounted blower or with the blower mounted on the intake. Ed Shaver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
