A friend built this car about 20 years ago. He played with it for a couple years and lost interest. The NHRA certification is only good for 3 years. I was over his house a week or so ago. He mentioned he finally figured out, he just couldn't save them all, and was selling off a lot of his car collection. I said, "what about the dragster?" He said $2K if you want it. Oh, yeah, I want it. 413 Dodge, Ultra Bell 2 speed trans. Chrysler 8 3/4 rear. Oh, hell yeah I want it. He has 5 model T's and 2-3 of them have to be moved to get it out. He's busy now, so am I. We are going to wait till Spring to dig it out.

I still have some Mopar center sections from my old Dodge coupe. Probably sell them this winter. Sold most of them off years ago. I kept the very best one of nodular iron with an adjustable bump stop on it. The beefy model from 68-9
 
I’m guessing he was a mopar guy . Looks like a Plymouth convertible to the right
Well he has 5 Model T's. But, off the top of my head, the one next to the dragster is a 68 Satellite 383 rag top. He has 3, 66 Chargers, a 66 Coronet 440, a 40's Dodge 4 door sedan. He just sold his 69 340 Cuda and a 68 Sport Satellite 383. He has a bunch of cars and trucks for sale. He's into military vehicles now. He just sold a Studebaker Weasel, has several deuces with flat beds and dumps, a couple ten ton's with cranes. Here's a pic of his 46 Ford tow truck, it's for sale, with a matching 46 dump truck.

We are in MD, he would probably make a good deal for anything there. He just bought out a collection of military stuff and needs the space. If you see something, ask, I can put you in touch with him.
