Cool piece! Can't answer your question, but if you like that car, you'd love the Renteria Bros' similar wagon - in black, no less - that they use to tow their Valiant 4-door A/Gas car around at the track.

The Wagon is a slant 6 car with a Lenco out of Washington. Runs mid 11's. Very cool car.

And as good as it looks in pics - that car is WAY cooler in person. Really a neat ride.

I asked Dave once why he used a Lenco behind a Slant. He said because he had one laying around.

The man is an incredible fabricator. Among other things he has made sheet metal intakes for Slants, and the ones I have seen pictures of were works of art.
