Thanks to "Flyin" Phil Elliot, I have just finished uploading 6 pictures of the legendary "Bardahl Bug" wheelstanding pickup truck, which was driven by Lynwood...
I am nearing completion of my FED project car and starting to think about purchasing some rubber. I am starting out with a VERY mild small block / glide...
I'm running 12" X 33" slicks - which was dictated by where my rearend is in my chassis. A lot of the Jr. Fuel guys are running 12" X 31" or even 30" slicks. ...
Thanks to all that responded, My old Harold Wilson car was very low, making it a real pain to load on the trailer. When I started thinking about what I wanted...
Recently aquired the car in my pics inside the photo album. It's an old fuel car & that's all I know so far. What does it usually take to get one certified?...
I started with 33x12's because I also need the ground clearance. When I swapped out the '57 Chevy rear to a 9" Ford, it ended up wider, so I put on the...
Also - be careful what you get from Brendan, as he may run the tires for a 16" rim on his fueler. He will steer you straight, but there is a difference. diggrz...

Thanks. The NHRA guy is a LONG way away & I'm not much on the IHRA guy. Hoping to tig in some tubing & hope to not need a new chassis. It has a 460 Ford in it...
Rick: You don't say where you're located, but if you're building a digger I guess there's a strip somewhere close to you. Check and see if the track operator...
David, I'm in Tulsa Ok. The NHRA guy that did my tube chassis cars was from Topeka Ks. I think it might be best to take the bare chassis to someone I know who...
Rick, I haven't followed the whole thread, but you definitely want to put your money in the chassis FIRST. I've already had mine in the local chassis shop...
Sorry, Rick....I'm not very computer literate. How do I get to that? Dave Rick <qtr_miler@...> wrote: Added some pics to the photo section under Ricks...
We're looking at moving that way next year. I figure, worst case, I can use the big block stuff in a door car & just put a flathead in the digger, kinda slow...
Rick: Dummy that I am, I didn't realize (I was just posting direct from my email) that you were on the FED site. Checked out your pix and was blown away by...
