Dusty corners of the NHRA Classification Guide
 

What are some cars that are tucked away in the NHRA Classification Guide that no one seems to race any more, if they ever were? Some are holdovers from decades ago that are now too expensive or rare to build. Some are weakly powered economy cars or barges that were largely ignored. There are also a few unexpected foreign imports.

Here is one that I was surprised to find in the guide. Feel free to add more of your own.

Cool car! Even IF you could find one and even IF you could afford to buy it why would you cut it up?
There's lots of cool combos in the "dusty corners" of the guide. Most of them have moved on to collectible status though.

That Caddy is just waiting for a roll bar to be welded in ;-)

Hey.... there's even a couple of Caddy Limosines in the guide too. I see the '57 Cadillac "Imperal Limosine" 4 door would have to weigh a paltry 5,695 (Yikes!) to run in Q/SA...:). I can just hear a crew cab dually groan when one one of those things gets loaded in the extra long trailer (heavy duty tri-axle I'm guessing)....L-O-L You'd need an axle concession at the least.

that caddy convert is worth $30-50,000 to start and cut it up oops

Love to see someone run that caddy as a stick car LOL!

I have a Buick fireball 8, air cleaner to pan, if they want to put the car in GT.
