                                            HEY Mater I think that’s agreat idea .Roy’s old car could never pass cert today believe it or not the whole front half or that dragster was made out of square tubing . If your gonna build a car make sure it is safe. If you look at the pictures from Island that other front motor dragster is Ford powered.Come on in the water’s fine

                                                                front motor cars are for baby’s, if you build the motor right you don’t have to put it out front to keep an eye on it.
