Might be looking to change directions and putting my dragster up for sale. This is the ex Bill Edwards, ex- Hemi powered fuel car that was once ran in NHRA G/dragster in Competition Eliminaor.  I bought this car in 2011 as a complete car and have mae some changes.  It previously went 10.90s in the 1/4 and 6.90s in the 1/8 mile with a 2332 that had VERY small heads and made probably only 200 horse power. Since then the motor has been re-done, transmission freshened and some stuff added.


Motor----2332cc with a scat 84mm crank, Scat rods, JE pistons and AA cylinders that are cut to length. Motor is approx 15:1 compression.  CB strip dominator heads and manifolds that have a fresh valve job and brand new valve covers.  Thick wall manton pushrods and a custom grind cam.  Exhaust was just built from stainless, custom unit and has not been fired on the car. Ignition is a crank trigger.  Induction is dual 58mm throttle bodies from Borla Industries with a custom 1-off linkage and manifold adaptors.  Motor was broken in with 48 IDA's and the throttle bodies are un-used.  This motor will make atleast 300 horse NA.  Our hope was use and tune it for E-85 fuel.  Built by Jersey Joe Koenig.

EFI--   CB unit, still in box.  The injectors were sized to this motor, wiring harness was built to suit. Everything is there except a fuel pump. All new in box and never mounted.

Transmission--  2 speed power glide that has 0 runs on rebuild with a transbrake .  Converter is a 8''.  8000 RPM stall.  It is shifted by an automatic shift solonoid from Biondo racing that is RPM activated.

Rear end--  Magnesium center section that has ties to being produced by Mickey Thompson.  Currently runs a 5.57 ratio and comes with a 4.56 spare set.  This is something you may see in a 1950's Oldsmobile and is very rare. It has a nut protector on back and this is a front loading style rear end.

Chassis---- 166'' wheelbase.  S&W racecars single wheel wheelie bar with quick connects included and a parachute.  Front wheels are spoke style and have anglia spindles.
I have added a new fuel cell and mount since buying the car.  Also a new battery hold down, some hip/kidney bars were added at a chassis shop.

Electronics--  MSD 7AL-2 box, the crank trigger ignition, and brand new gauges.  These include in box a tachometer, volt gauge, oil pressure gauge and transmission temp gauge.  16v battery is also brand new.

Body---  all aluminum and hand formed back in the 60's.  Untouched since then and added was a 2011 camaro green with extra metal flake.


Here is a thread to the car      http://ultimateaircooled.com/simplemachinesforum/index.php/topic,11997.0.html

You can see when I first got it, it was orange.  As you scroll through, you can see the changes.   Currently the car is sitting in my trailer with the motor out of it after I just plumbed in a transmission cooler.  All of the plumbing is gone and electronics too.  However, the rear brakes were just bled and adjusted.  Car has a hand brake lever.  This car has won a lot of events and brought great success to the old owner.

Here is the car in 2005, which is pretty much how I bought it in 2011--    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUFa0vq0760

For everything I would like to get $15,000 but open to offers.  I have shipped a car to Switzerland from the US so I do have experience with over seas shipping.  Any question, just ask.

I love VW dragsters!

I have followed the UAC thread for some time now.
So I help you a bit Scott with some pictures from the thread.
I would love to see the car on the track, no matter in what part of the world.
