Re: Hot Rod C/50 on Ebay
Would that thing be worth $6,000 minimum just because it was fast before they took the motor and trans out?What`s left that isn`t just a hacked-up (as far as stock goes) old medium duty,other than the rear tires?The bumper wasn`t cheap.Where`s the aluminum wheels or even a real paint job?
I think it was too dangerous for the racers as well.Two large trucks racing down a high crown narrow bumpy not even straight road that doesn`t even have the center marked! It`s sanctioned street racing.Sanctioned or not,it`s street racing,which is dangerous.The tradition of road rallying has come under the safety scope.This is worse.We had our "spots" for racing.There were only a few in a large area because it had to have all the stuff to be "right".The races were watched from the starting line or first stretch of 20-30',no farther.Only the one who called the race was at risk down there.These "spots" were on deserted stretches of road.
