How many AMT DD builds in here ?


Recommended Posts

Honestly...............2, and that is stretching it. One AA/FC body car, and one chassis research bar car (but even that was a longer chassis than the DD kit). Honestly, I see a lot more Tony Nancy, Ivo, and Hippie Hemi/Hemis-Phere/Ramcharger/Garlits builds here.

Dads' car was a 150" car built by Logghe Stamping from a Chassis Research bar. It wore a 23 'T' roadster pick-up body later in life and ran in the AA/FR and later A/GR classes. Then dad got it and it was a weekend bracket/comp eleiminator car.

Added: this is dads car in 1976-77....before the accident that destroyed the engine/floorpan/dads left leg.

As you see in the pics, the rollbar area is a Chassis Research bar, and the front rails (firewall forward) are smaller diameter tube. The car was built in 1964 as a 120" car, and in 1965 it was stretched to 150".
