(Let alone having a paper profit...)

$50,000 for a SS/AH Chassis and $50,000 for an engine...........Thats way to cheap. Some chassis builders charge in excess of $100,000 to do the chassis AFTER you supply a decent car. Last track I had on a "Winning" fast SS/AH Hemi engine (might last 10 or 12 runs) was in the $75,000 range. I guess you could cut corners and tow it with an old pick up and a wooden flat bed trailer or use towing hubs and a tow bar.....lol.
