Damn, I must never pay attention on here. I never knew you had that car... that thing is tough as hell.
I've seen these twice, probably the same guy built them, it's a minature sprint car tail tank nerffing bumper that bolts to the gear cover of a quick change rear end. The guy offered to build one for me a few years back but I didn't have a quick change yet. I do now and I sure wish I had his number. I think he was from Indiana, met him and the neat nerf at the NSRA Nats.
A nerf is synonomus with bump. Nerffing bars were put on sprint cars by car owners to ward off the tires of compe***ors from their tires and hand formed aluminum bodys before cages and throw away race cars. The term is has been shortened to nerfs now-a-days.
I made these in a rush, and they are too small, if you want them, PM me, I have since got some from a HAMBer that are better proportioned.
Here is the one I fabricated, then ran all the wires internally. More pictures posted under my thread...
Now those are original. I wonder if Ralph Nader would have approved of them? LOL Here's mine, a tow hitch! lol
Thanks, I'll take that as a solid maybe. Can't say my friends are crazy about them either. Not much good in a crash but should do for a '5mph' bumper.
