Hmm when we were looking for a new and different body to the T, before we got the '34 for some reason my Dad thought the Kenworth was a good idea??!! Ron told Darren he'd cut it up and burnt it, whichever I'm glad we never got it!!

Hi Muddy
This is Saab Sonet it was raced Finnish guy called Erik Tuominen in competition altered 77 - 80.
It was powered big block 427 Ford motor. It went low 10sec times.
If I remember right it was first planned to run nitro fc in Sweden, car was owned then by Olavi Knuuttinen.
but he sold it to Finland. No idea where car is at the moment.

Uncovered paintwork on team thing funny car body look carefully you can see the red & white stripes along with the Yellow & Black paintwork defiantly the Herts engineering car. Car should be back out with the Supercharged Outlaws in 2014 with new paint job uprated chassis and loads of new engine bits. Same small block chevy we had in the altered hopefully this set up will get us into the sevens next year
Rolled the car out of the garage this Saturday 21st July 2014 still more work to do plan is to get the car to Hot Rod Drags this year (cacklefest only) :D
