The Hatchback he will probably never sell it is a part of him. It actually is at the Petersen Museum right now on display. Plus it isn't legal for the NHRA anymore for how fast people are going now.

No the car will not be racing just used in shows.

Yep I work at AEM and I was the crew cheif for Steph when we raced the Front Drive.

What a rip. Someone cut the axles in half with a chop saw yesterday. I hope it comes with new axles.

I think that price is a steal for that car. That's way less than you could build a competitive hot rod car for, and it breaks less too! For 60k you can be a big competitor in the pro fwd class, sounds like a good deal to me!

That is exactly what I am saying. I would buy it myself, but don't have the money right now. I'm actually gonna think about buying it maybe we'll see and for what it has in it that is a steal. Say we value the motors at $5,000 each. Fortin Sequential $10,000. Motec M48 Pro & CDI 8 with wiring guessing $5,000. In those three things already $25,000. Plus a fully built chassis. Ready to run. low eights straight out of the box nothing to test just warm up the car and go. This deal can't be beat.
