I'm working on my old drag car that ran 8.93. I had given it to my dad who had started to convert it to a street car and cut my cage out of it. He's passed on now and I'm returning it to its original state. If someone wants me to text pics until I figure out how to again I'll share

Text Gastrick how to post again. You did a good enough job explaining it for me to figure it out Dr C. ...
I'll be tuned in!
 
Yeah, I got 'em. (Sorry for the delay. :eek:)

Don't know if you know what I did for a living. Happy to be retired. This was my office.

I hold an NHRA super comp license which I've never mentioned on the forum.

Even my truck ran 9.30s. Sorry that's from a magazine article.

Top of the line parts going into your project. From the looks of the rear tires it'll be streetable and certed to go fast too.
 
Thanks for posting my pics. Yes bob w removing slicks but sticky m/t tires, also will get full cage back. I will probably have to add chute again. Cage will be certified.
