Quote: With a lot of help and used parts this one came in less than 15K. Doug
I believe it I do alot of stuff for friends for free and call them up if I need something. Most of the little stuff that nickels and dimes you to death can be had for free with the right set of friends. I have atleast one good friend in all aspects of a build, parts, fab, paint and body, machine work, etc. Not all do free work but I can call in alot of favors if I need to and I have a decent set of skills as well. I have less than 5K in my whole car including buying it. Now as far as ET's, My 60ft sucks so bad I don't know what it would run all out but it runs back to back 90mph passes in the 1/8th with a best of a 2.10 60' I have only hurt the motor twice in two years and all it needed both times were head gaskets.
