This is my grandfater's drag car. He has built this car literally in his backyard (hint the name "Backyard Bullet"). He built everything, narrowed the rearend himself, built the roll cage to NHRA specs, built the engine I mean everything. I have it on my page bc I drive it when Im in town. The car normally runs on alcohol but when I drove it it ran on gas. The fastest the car has gone was 6.49 @ 105 mph in the 1/8th. The fastest I have been in it was 6.91 @ 98 mph. Just shows how much alcohol picks up these cars. The body is all original the only thing fiberglas on it is the hood. It does have lexan windows. The motor is a 455 Pontiac pretty much stock except a few things. So pretty much its a fast car for as heavy it is.
Heres only a couple of pics as soon as I get more they will be on here.

Your grandad has done a great job, it looks to leave real straight. I bet you can't wait to run alcohol.
