Re: drag truck project

How about some more info on this? What type of running gear is he using? How did it start? I take it was inspired a bit by the Farm Truck

Re: drag truck project

Im headed down to his place on tuesday and will take a lot more pics. He is helping a friend do the fab work. He is extremely good at welding and making stuff work. I know they are going big block with a bottle but that's all the info I have so far. I will find out the rest of the story and post it up.

Re: drag truck project

When they get it dialed in, they'll have to drive down to Oklahoma to take on "farm truck"- it would probably be a good race. Thanks for sharing
