1930fordpickup Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 That is so cool. I wonder if this would pass for a landspeed car? . That popup camper is awesome.
chunkypeanutbutter Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 I've seen this one before One of my aspirations is to do the Lemons race.
bobthehobbyguy Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Cool idea. Also the trailer in one of the side photos was cool. Great use for something that in all likely hood would have been scrapped.
Ace-Garageguy Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 What a sad end for that beautiful old 310. Gotta agree with that, but to people who don't fly, it's just junk. The old airframe may have so much fatigue cracking and corrosion that it would never be flyable again anyway. Better to go out as a silly race car than Bud cans, I guess.
espo Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 I've seen other magazine stories on this race and the crazy cars that guys have entered before, but this thing has got to be the best yet. I wish I had the time, money, and skills to do something like this.
