Well today I finally got the notchback that will be the new drag car. It took a while to get it out to storage. After looking at building a bug for a new NHRA SS class I've decided to stay focus on this car instead. I'm going to run fiberglass front and rear fender, Big Wig Racecars will be doing on the alum work ( interior and rear engine cover with wing ) and wheelie bars. Still undecided on who is going to do the cage. Its going to be a killer car "when" its done.

Here's the artwork that I did few months ago on whats its going to look like
