The owner is shooting for 1,000 hp, an overall weight of 2,000 - 2,500 pounds (and close to 50/50), and is doing 99 percent of the work himself…

 


Sounds like a recipe for low 5-second eighth-mile passes to us.

-X-braced, chromoly frame
-Transmission brake
-Wheelie bar, which he says will more than likely steer the car the first 100 feet
*Notice the 12-valve lurking in the background…

The owner has been steadily supplying us with updates and photos of the buildup. THIS is how you get your project in the magazine: good photos, all details about your build, and most of all keeping in touch (we’re pretty busy here at the magazine, and need a little reminding now and then).

—Much more to come on this project…
