I think that it was Joe Smith who built the chassis...or so Ive been told..
Its a great chassis...hooks hard and goes straight every time...the only weak link in the whole car so far has been the driver!
And ya...floor pan has some holes!! haha Never looked at it that way..holes are light...
Its nice to see pics from before...gives you an idea of the history of the car...all these cars seem to have very colourful histories..
