Howdy all

If anyone is keen for a cheap drag car (less engine), then this may be for you!!

After a mad thrash to get the RAD BUG (tribute to the 80s drag bugs of yesteryear) ready for warwick last year, unfortunately the decision has to be made to sell (space/storage/significant other pressures!). It was a joint project between myself and Brad (blup58) and we had a ball putting it together - it ran a best of 9.1sec on the 1/8th (first time out) with his 2110.

I won't crap on too much with details as anyone interested can shoot me a PM or call. In summary though, new 8mm stainless fuel line, electric fuel pump, new wiring/relays etc, new 14in tyres, line lock in place but not currently working (haven't had time to sort it out), solid mounted gearbox (stock 1500), adjusters just welded into b/j beam, new window rubbers all round.....blah blah. I've got close to $4K in it (not including the time/labour).

$1500 (engine or autometer guages not included)
contact Al (0417 645 854)
Car is currently located in Shailer Park (sth side of Brissy)

Yep - if no-one wants it for this price I'll probably end up making a streeter out of the parts so may be looking for an early body soon 🙂

Still for sale, even if you scrap the body and keep the pan still worth the money! Adjustable ball joint beam, 1500 swing axle box which are becoming somewhat sought after.

Had lots of interest at Dubs by the Pie, but alas I still had to tow it home. Maybe I am wrong wtih the pricing, despite lots of comments that it is worth more than $1500, no-one wanted to shell out the cash so I am open to reasonable offers over $1K. For anything under that I will just strip it and sell the parts separately for which I'll most likely get more for anyway.....so give me your best offer 🙂
