Yep..10"...cars been in the family since 1970...my Dad used to run it in IHRA Super Gas back in the 80's. So needless to say most of the chassis is set up from the 80's. My dad chopped the firewall and moved the motor back and 3-linked the car at the time. The only thing I updated was a funny car cage and redid the rear frame rails to get the car to sit lower with the coilovers.

Motor made 1030hp/850ft-lb tq

Car weighs 2840 w/ me in it

Driver was fine. Car is not as bad as it looks. The Ford brothers will fix it better than ever was.

This thread is so long, I don't know if I ever posted these pics on it, or not.

Anyhow, the 1st pic is of my wife(TJ), leaving the line in her '68 Bird bracket car. This pic was taken in 1979. She won lots of races in this car, & quite a few at this track, which was in Tyler, TX. One win there was at an IHRA points race, in '78.

The 2nd pic was taken in '77, in Prescott, Ark. at the Southwest Ark Championship race, which she won.
