I like it. I used to like underdog too when I was a kid. I do a pretty good impression of him as a matter of fact...but I digress
I like the second one for the hood!

It needs a lot...
I will make a list on the first post of items needed any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
The off the top of my head items are, fuel cell, fuel lines, fuel pump(s), fuel filter, injectors, better wire harness, better radiator, cooling fan, catch can, labor help, body work help, graphics, paint items, brainstorming.

absolutely! A picture of Underdog with a 7M on his chest? thats a great logo! LOL.
Since it isnt a street car I'll see if I can find a way to lighten the hood but still kep it steel so that its something I can work with. Im thinking maybe I can do away with some of the supports. Possibly replace alot of it with aluminum. I have two hoods here I can work with and I know where I can get another if I need to. But really, ultimately what I would like to do is get one of my hood designs made in CF and donatte that.
When do you forsee this car making its maiden run?

Wow, a hood would be great! It could be just a shell and we could use the hood pins only to hold it. The maiden run?? I have no clue, I am not made of cash with a wife, two kids, and a house. And I would hate to do it so fast that people miss out on the chance to participate. It could be done in time for vegas 07 with a blessing from above or maybe texas 08?
I got a fuel cell i can donate, 12 gal. Lemme knwo if you want it.
And i'll be more than happy to help with the labor, just give me a job at the shop, i'll move out there, and i'll work on both our cars at the same time and get them both ready for a meet

That is a pretty big fuell cell, 12 gal? - you could make passes all day and not need to add fuel. What size outlets does that have? Might cost you more to send it to me than I could buy a 4 gallon one here locally. I will use it if you send it. Don't temp me on the moving here thing, we could prob. build some crazy stuff together.
Teamwork. I love it, lol.
I'll go rummage out in the garage and see if I've got anything worthy of this project 7M.

It has 2 -8 outlets. I cant see it costing much more than $30 to ship, but i can take measurements and get an estimate if you would like.
Dont tempt me on actually letting me build stuff at your shop...lol. Im just looking for an excuse to get out of CT and build race cars/motors for a living...
Got any use for a oil catch can or radiator overflow tank? Nice shiny aluminum tig welded stuff....
Bryan - Come to Indiana. You know you've always wanted to run at [formally] Indianapolis Raceway Park, now O'Reilly Raceway park.
You can race with all the top fuel dragsters when you get your '87 done!
***just a thought..........a good thought.***
But coming to Ohio would work, too, lol.

wow, i wasnt quite sure what to expect when i first saw this thread. then i started reading. this sounds awesome and i would like to help in some way. the only way i can think of though is through my art. i will try to sketch out some rough designs for logo's and/or graphics over the next few days and try to post them up. i will try to do a few different of each. only trouble is i cant airbrush or make decals! i just do the design part...sorry! :icon_bigg
