The Bottom line: Please do some homework here.
This is a TOP QUALITY, REAL LOGGHE Nostalgia Dragster That can actually be raced on NITRO.
Car Was NOT Molested during update, car has never been cut, or stretched.
Reason being the car was built right in 65.
Almost every moving part on this car is NEW.
Titanium fasteners throughout this car. No junk anywhere.
Think about what it would cost you to fix an old car. Then think about total cost for a new (UGLY) car.
You will find you wont have half the car you see here at a total price of 15K
Also Available: (with chassis)
Snell 95 helmet all 2001
Spare 8-3/4 742 case
Spare Stock 1:7 powerglide with shortie plenatary hub/ output shaft.
Kawasaki 225 cc Bayou 4 wheeler (this you can buy alone)

nice , almost looks too fast but hey you can never go fast enoug

Classic, I wish I had the money.

He says in his add that it can be raced on nitro. Doesn't that mean that the engine pictured comes with the car??

Streets,
your obviously a chevy guy you think everything is cheap. nowhere in my ad did I say it comes with a motor the one pictured or one of the other motors I have. I also stated to do some homework here 15K for the chassis and everyting else listed. (again no motor or trans in that list) A brand new car would cost you 13-15K for just the chassis, tanks, etc. no electronics, no wire, no harnesses, no guages, no plumbing, no battery, no ballast, no wheelie bars, (go look at the list so I dont have to type all this out) so add all that to the price of a new chassis and that is what you will pay for a new, ugly F/E dragster.
This car is a documented 1965 Logghe Brothers Chassis (try and find one I dare you) the statement of being able to run nito means the car as certafied to the advanced et cert of 6.30. in lamens terms that is good for about 240 mph. you cannot enter the car as a top fuel car but you can run pop in the tank, haul ass and be legal 100%. this car is lacking only a Motor and trans. everything else is there, hook up the wires and plumbing and go race.

Misread all that above. but thanks for the clairification some people think you can get an old car for a song. you can but it will need everything and god knows who built it in the first place. and just about anyone into the old nostalgia cars knows (or should know) the 2 best builders were Woody Gilmore and the Logghe Bros.

WHOA...Wait a minute Memch.. I was replying to Dusty's posting about the engine being there.. I know what it costs for all the above.. MY AA/FC Quicksilver I & II & III cost way more than that for the rollin' chassis and body.. I wasn't knockin' the price at all. Just stating that u'd need an engine that would cost big bucks in this day and age.. Did ya sell it yet.. NO, I am NOT interested in buying, just wondering is all.. MY RT is way off... so much so that I have to have an alarm clock to wake me up now..... "So don't jump on me until ya READ ALL the postings OK"???

I think they should add a geezer light to the tree. But then again maybe 1 more light would be too confusin'. He He

Nice old car, good price......I am so poor

Being Broke Sux. Tell ya what, trade you an 87AMC eagle for it!
