It’s likely that the Blue Max car name is the most famous in Funny Car History.

The Blue Max moniker first appeared at the 70’NHRA Winternationals on a Ford Mustang Funny Car owned by Harry Schmidt. The flashy blue paint scheme, the trick lettering, and the famed painting of the WWI German commendation medal for combat flying distinguished it from the others. For the next 20 years, the Blue Max was one of the most popular cars on the match race circuit and the NHRA tour.

AMT scale model was great to build with some modefications.

Being a newb I don't like questioning things. I noticed that it looks like the frame is a little twisted with the left front wheel not touching the ground. I am going to assume that it is due to all the torque the frame has undergone during those high power launches.
