sorry Bro, but back then I did not have internet or a digital camera

but try to gloogle mid 80's funny cars, for sure you can get losts of

ideas for the chassie.

just for FYI...most of this kits, specially funny cars, their stands are not right.

check the pics of the 1;1 funny cars, in the 80's they started to pay lots of attention

in the air dynamics and the boddies are low. to get that effect I cut of about 1/10

of the bars of the roll cage were the driver seats. and cut an opening on the side of the skirts

for the headers. and thanks for the coments on my stang.

here is an example

this is a beautifull and clean build, but can you see that the body

looks to high, you can tell by checking the back tire that does not look tucked in

like the 1;1 counterparts.
