    You really did a great job building the car.

    The steering set up is interesting and different.

    Clean rail for sure. Jimbo

    I have looked at CR cars all over the net and the LW-106's appear to be the only Ch***is they produced with a Right Hand Steer.

    Little history .... January 1964, Hot Rod Magazine did a "Big Rail" review addition that featured Joe Jacono (Rolling Stoned funnycar fame) with 10 other diggers.

    Jacono's featured car was a LW-106 that set a speed record of 174.65 mph @ 8.63 et......

    Pretty cool this ch***is is the same Jacono ran.

    Where'd you get those front wheels. They look familiar.

    Thanks Ken.... Hope you get a chance to see it in person.
     
  13. Very nice,
    Love the front end design. Very partial to 1/4 eliptics here and have also built one with RH steer. You did a great job. Smart looking car!
