    Prepare for stupid question...... can this car be "driven" or is it just a static display?

    Come on Muttley, maybe he was referring to the timing? That's pretty good diagnostic skills from just a few snapshots.

    Wasn't it on TV ("Rides" I think) where he did a couple 1/2 passes down the drag strip?

    Either way, that thing is cool, in a psychobilly kinda way!

    And oh yeah...

    I had built a web site for it a few years ago, but the web host was funny about linking to the images, and the links became damaged. I also lost most of the pages on my hard drive when it took a dump, so I pulled the site down.

    Last I heard, he was having the Bean Bandit's help him with the cage and chassis, and he had plans on running it somewhere. I think he recently got a little sponsorship-type help from Moon to get it functional, but I'm not 100% on that.

    It has been discussed here in the past, run a search and see what you can dig up.

    The car is, and always will be, bad ass...I don't care what the nay sayers say. Rick's shots of it for R&C are just plain bitchin'....

    Does anyone know what size this side slick is? I think it looks awesome. Not that the Radir on the other side looks bad, but the one on this side is what I'm after.
