That would make a great hauler for a great price, diesel, allison transmission. Just have to leave a little early to get to the track on time.  
it's ok to butt heads, just don't do it with a butthead

Fantanni ?
Albert Fontanini was a good friend of my dads. He and Reno Nanini from Chicago campaigned a Fuel F/C very successfully on a national level.
His career was tragically ended when going to a race, they were stopped at a toll booth in Indiana, a truck driver fell asleep at the wheel, and ran into the back of their hauler. With the fuel on board, it exploded killing Albert and a mechanic instantly.
Reno Nanini still travels with his son who runs a super-comp rail.

Is that the car the Yellow Tail SSP dragster was modeled after or was that a common FED dragster body back in those days?
