OH MY GOD  I found a pic of that car somewhere on the net a while ago now and I fell in LOVE with straight away  Its just soooooooo RIGHT  So does this mean you are the new owner of this body/car  if you are your a lucky man  Do you have any more history on this AWSOME ride

Thats a nice looking chop! Similar looking to the Keith Goss car...is it being rebuilt?

how cool it that.
Has anyone seen the Freds Super Bee car that Chris Morely has been trying to sell for the last few years? If yes, is there enough there to turn it back into the race car?
Si.

Saw that, first thing I thought when I saw the interior was something along the lines of !!!!! and then I scrolled down and read the reason for it. Very cool car.  ...Here's one more unknown (outside Finland) gasser....  Could maybe have done with a couple more inches out of the roof though?

I don't think it is the same car, just look at the door handle. One looked to be pre 64, the other one 65 or 66. i found this picture today on the samba ,is an old drag/strip car it's written on the left quater panel DRF  for DER RENWAGEN FUHRER club  and i'm said to me i know this car ,i 've an picture and i found it  ,the only things who chnage on the car is the roof for me the color is the same watch the rev count he's on the same place there 's no roll cage on my picture but may be this one was put later  what do you thinks guys about this car have you some info (sarge , deano , jim , rick .....)

He is still holding out for 4 grand for it, but by the looks of it, whilst it obviously has an interesting past, it is just a late model project covered in crap! I wonder how hard it would be to rebuild it, and re-do the signwriting properly?

wow cool pic, the only one I have seen before is the one in Keiths book. You have to say that the car is pretty cool. The bodywork looks comparitively standard, and if you could get a good pic of the logo, someone could re paint it. Question is would someone pay $4k for the project car? http://albums.photo.epson.com/j/AlbumIndex?u=4027793&a=31757246&f=Si.

It was and old Race Car that has gone threw a few owners but it is really beat up now it is a car from the past but not as popular as other cars of the day it was a neat late model but even back in the pictures you have it was not a real clean car
