Well, see Part 1

 

The ’63 Comet ‘Official Blogmocarcy’ Drag Car build continues!

 

Build Notes from Dorian:

“Well the factory stock rear-end is now out, the gas tank is out and the trunk has been cut out. The material for the tube chassy A frame for the rear-end has been cut and measured. Next we will weld up the rear-end A-frame and tie the rear-end A-frame to the rest of the tube chassy, add ladder bars and shock tower mounts.

Then it was time to take my seven year old nephew around the track in my little toy for a few hours.”
