I am considering my most ambitious project to date
The setup/history. In 1981 I bought as a roller, from Gary Harwood, his first super gas, super pro roadster. I completed it in about 5 months, and it was the first Harwood roadster to make it to the track, and I won super pro the first time out.
The roadster suited me perfectly and was a constant round winner. It ran 9.60's with a relatively mild [by today's standards] 355 SBC. Today, 41 years later, I have the idea build a duplicate of the car. I am in the process of reaching out to several fellows who worked for Harwood in those days. [Including Tod Bevis] It is my hope someone may have the original plans for the chassis. I do have a folder of photos that show much of the details. It might be possible to create a chassis dimension drawing from the photos. Two questions. *Have any of you built a similar chassis? *Do any of you have plans for a similar chassis? The follow photo is an example of many that I have |

Larry,
I have the Proto type Roadster he used to build the Strut cars. It has been sitting in my shop and never completed or raced. One of the biggest difference between the straight front axel cars and the strut cars is the Running boards. He told me that was one of the biggest changes he made in the molds |

Adger, do you want to sell it?
