Have seen your add on outher sites. Do you have any of the orignal body acessories such as head and tail lamps , dash and chrome. I would like to run N/SS class and would need these and outher items to convert it to the circuit rules. Also it what condition is the body

Yes. It is still for sale. I have about 12 people interested (calling with questions, etc) but no cash in hand yet.

I do not have any of the trim, that one reason Im only asking $8,000 and not a lot more. As a drag only car it's fine but like for what you want to do and what I would like to make it look complete and finished you'd need to find/replace trim and head/tail light buckets. It comes with fiberglass bumpers so that will help clean the front and rear up a lot.

Body is in good shape, doors are perfect, there are a couple of small things that need to be fixed on the fiberglass front end but simple for body/fiberglass guy and the rear fender stretches are nicely done. The doors and front end need to adjusted for door gaps, etc but that's typical of fiberglass. I don't see any rust so even with those items above I would say the body is in good shape.

Here the picture of the 3 things that need to be fixed on the front end.

Guys, I looked this car over real well.
Alot of car for the money here!
Everything well thought out & assembled correctly.
No way you could duplicate this for twice the money.
Only concern that I see was a couple of fiberglass issues, but nothing major.
Very easy fix.


I wish it had been available when I bought the Barracuda I have now.
Would have bought it in a heartbeat!
I would be running 9's instead of low 10's.
