the engine and front end suspension out of it... I'll
pull the interior tomorrow then cut the floor pan out...
its going to be a W-5 SB with a auto and a 4-link
with strut front

on the race car... gotta be able to handle the roads

Here's a pic of "MY Rampage"....Ask Mr_P who used to drive this everyday.

Oh well, I guess it's his now, as long as I can drive it once in awhile.

It has a fiberglass cap on it but I dont think I'll
run the cap... too heavy

Mr.P as if you dont have enough toys allready,

you have to go and take your wifes???


That will be a cool build, you dont see too many of them.

But whenever i see one, they are built nice.

I have always thought they were cute little buggers with a ton of drag car potential.
I'll be watching this one progress with a good bit of interest.

I was going to build it as a drag car some years back
but she didnt want me too... thats when I built the
P-body so now it'll be CLOSE to a drag car... I know
I could build it lighter but I am keeping the interior
basically stock and all the glass stays

I can go a choice of 3 classes, mod N/A or I do have
a blower and can go mod P/A or daily driver.... remember
that I cant get a NHRA license any more so 10.0 is
all I can go

Then Mod P/A is out and even though there were no entries in Mod N/A that would most likely be sub 10's also

My suggestion would be to go Daily Driver and try to knock on 10'0s, there is at least one; the Buick GS I believe in the 10's....any which way you go....best of luck

Quickest you can go in daily driver is 10.80 so
that isnt a problem... I;m still setting up for
10.0 and hopefully in mod N/A... even when I get
there I can change class

That will be a head turner, License it. My wife and I love doing the local cruise nights and yours would be a one of a kind. None left around here they all rusted out.
