| Other Notes: | | This car was initially built with a V6, but never ran before being removed for conversion. It was constructed to emulate a 1930's era dirt track racer. No attempt was made to be a "show car". I used the tools, materials and concepts available at that time. Then It was converted to electric. It is a nimble, light weight, fun driver. |
