What spec is that? I see 2x3 main rails, those are only good to 7.50, or did you add redundant chromoly rails?


All chromoly in cage area, even double frame railed.

I just added the two frame rail bars along with the 2 x 3.

I would have had to completely redo the car to to remove the 2 x 3 and that was out of the question.

Thanx for your replies, i'm off to physically see this car next weekend. as i was told of the cars history, the first owner ran out of time & money. he was building the car to be a turbo'd hemi. the second owner bought the car, sold the turbo'd hemi & built a big cube blown hemi but having 4 racecars, figured he was spending money on all of them but racing none of them, so he's selling 2 of his projects & this car is one of them.
i'm only looking to buy the roller & my plan was just to run it as an 8 second budget bracket car. i already have a street car that is the same year so i thought having 2 racecars looking identicle would be a cool thing. As the pics show it needs work which i'm not afraid of as i can do it myself.
