Default Re: 1967/1968 Dick Harrell funny cars

Jeff, I had thought about that, but the burgundy car just does not look like the R/B car. Real vs molded in tail lights, vanes on rear deck, and a couple of other smaller details that are only noticable in the actual pictures.

I too would like to know how it was done, could not have been a easy thing to do. Hinges, latch, extra fiberglass somewhere as re-inforcement, as the body would want to buckle when lifted. IMO, possible, but very hard to do on a car already in service versus trying to do it on a new car.

Plus the magazine artilce 55Chevy alluded to says there were two cars, with pictures of the r/b car and the burgundy car.
