It's comming together

My $100 drag car that is. In a nut shell I trying to spend as little as possible. So far I have put less than $40 into it, and obviously countless hours. All of the aftermarket parts have been freebies!

1st, back when I bought it in Nov 05.





And currently:







There is so much to be done. Im focusing on removing all the extra weight I can. More pix on my homepage, with more info of the car.

Building a drag car on freebies? Good luck with that. Looks good though, minus the rust.

Yea rust sucks! The worst I have ever delt with. I dont know were to start. The car was in a huge wreck years ago so its not in the best shape even withouth the rust. I plan on cutting out the rust , but not sure how to replace it. The cheapest would be sheet metal, rivets or screws, then some bondo and/or fiber glass. Im only worried around the front of the doors on the rockers. The rest is just less weight.

if you cut out the rust/floor to replace maes sure you get thick enough steel and that you put all those bends and what not back in. you have to rember, it is a unibody so if you just laydown a flat peice of sheet metal it will not be NEARLY as strong. and please weld it in, the floor is a structural part of the car don't just screw it in.

o and good luck with the budget drag car

Yeop, flat metal is weaker than bent/curved metal. Luckly I dont have to touch the floor. Thats all surface rust. The rear quarter panels and wheel wells on the other hand, they are real bad.
