Owned by Jon Howard, this car has a long and mostly unknown history. When it came to us the chassis had evidence of multiple engine and suspension combinations as well as some parts that were clues to its former drag strip life. The chrome single hoop roll bar, ladder bar rear suspension, shortened cowl, and massive weight bar tube bumper let us know this car lived a brutal life, more than likely race after race. The chassis was deemed to be too butchered to use so we designed and built a new one while also fabricating new floors and a firewall. The car was finished in a style paying homage to its drag strip past.
