All described is included. Front suspension is straight tube axle with quarter elliptic springs, rear is solid. Torsion bars are in place for rear but locked out. Shocks will have to be added to activate.

For those who don't know this car it was built by Harold Johansen in the 60's. Since then it has been owned by Jim Brierley and Dan Inadola , the Swain brothers, Jerry Jones and us. Ken and I bought it from Jerry in 1976. Since then we have replaced the body, the rear axle, added 40" to the wheel base, changed the front axle and updated the roll cage twice. We passed inspection in 2014 but the meet was cancelled and  it has been parked since.

That's bad ass. Had this come up for sale when my car did I might've gone this route. That looks like an E ticket ride for sure

Yep! That is a really stupid cheap bargain for somebody. :-o You should probably list it on the DLRA forum. I'll put it on NZHRM.

I agree Sid, that barely covers the trailer and motor... if it would fit in my suitcase, I'd take to to the salt downunder....
Lots of stuff for the money.... even if you had to put $10K in it to freshen everything, you would be $50K ahead of building it....
