    Seems like the gears are always turning in our heads when it comes to these cars!

    Man that is cool but I'm sure way out of my price range when you start talking about the chassis that has to go under it then the motor, tranny, etc.....

    he doesnt have a price yet, but going by other classic funny bodies fresh out of the mold you can probably look for around $4000 give or take a few hundred for the body only.

    Nostailgia Funny car is a fast growing class with Goodguys. Ron Capps drove Jeff Gaynors car two weeks ago. Dale Pulde was turnin the wrenches. a few top guys from the past are getting involved. The quickest runs so far are 6.14 sec. at over 200 mph.

    Laborday week end they race in Seattle.
