swap meet find: old sprint car carcuss

[matthew john]

i found this at the swap meet for $5.00 came with the headers and 2 extra rear foam tires.
i had a body and a roll cage that i got from a friend, i was planning to use use that roll cage and body on that cycle arts custom sprintcar that i had, but the roll cage and body fits perfectly on the chassis. it had front shocks in the rear ,so they cut the rear hock tower to make it work, has no trans.its a project,needs some parts and some work, but for $5.00 i aint complaining. i also have some nice electronics id like to put in it, but not sure on what gearing to go with.
heres the pics of what it looked like when i got it, the roll cage fits perfect, just need to bend the frame a bit to align the holes.will post pics on this posting as i restore it. forgive me if i take long on pics, just busy,and i also got a lot of other projects going on to, also have some posts in the other sections too. enjoy





that tackle box is full of electrics that came with the package deal i got the same day,lots of goodies!

also is this a BBT, ascot ? anyone know what this is?

It looks to me like it has the BBT Vindicator roll cage..BBT chasssis..(flat with no kick up) and what look like Ascot side panels (no louvers) and BBT nerf bars (So have single bars)..I've seen so many variations that I'm not longer 100% sure about any of them..

Look at mine..you can see the differences..

yeah the roll cage i had laying around that worked on it, its the same exact one as yours,the rear part that comes off is different though, i think some one had made another one,its all bent and nothing is lined up,just a quick fix i guess.

i got it tore down and the parts are soaking now, will get some pics posted up here shortly
