Welcome to my Aspen's story. It was built from the ground up, although it is not all MOPAR I'm still thrilled with the finished vehicle. We tried to take the best from all the manufactures to create this racer.
First we started with an old Chevelle frame, mounted the Dodge 360 with the TorqueFlight Tranny, Custom Driveshaft, all connected to the Ford 9" rear end.

From there the rollcage was added.

The interior sheet metal ( Drivers Box ) was then added.

One last picture of my race partner and co-owner of our race teams car Pontiac Lemans. He has a lot more horse power and torque than I do however his driving skills leave something to be desired, as was evident in our last race when he climbed the wall. Last year I wrecked pretty bad twice so the team was calling me "CRASH", thanks for taking over the rains this year partner. Hehehe!!
