    71 Cuda Funny Car
    « on: December 07, 2015 - 01:49:15 AM »
    The famous Don Cook's Dam Yankee Cuda flopper NHRA record holder ended up in Australia, sadly all that is left is the body.

    I have plans of restoring the body only, back into it's Dam Yankee paint and just hang it in the shed.

    Now that is really cool! 

    If your gonna restore that body, sure would be easy enough to throw a simple drive line in it.  That is awesome!

    Not as easy as it may seem , I know a guy with a 71 Satellite body that originally had a Logghe chassis , nothing else seems to fit well under the body , the roll caage tends to push the body too high using other chassis
