It's nice when things like this happen on here so here's Mark Coulsell's dad reunited with his dragster after 34 years
Thanks to Steve Young for spotting it.

Hi. This is Mick Pearce...my Missus found this forum for me.
I almost didn't recognise Chariot in blue...when I built her I had her in metal-flake bronze.
I would love to know where she is now...although she looked a bit 'worse for wear' in the last photo.
If anyone is still interested I'll try and find some old photo's
Mick
