I pulled my Rampage into the shop today and dropped 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

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

Sounds like a fun project

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
