ok, its no 1958 caddy ,but this is about the best you can find in Connecticut these days It was a 1993 buick century that I ran at a local fair Thursday night. 70 cars showed up ! I finished 7th out of about 22 cars in my heat,due to my rear bumper being wrapped around the rear tires,and later, I took a few cars out in the consolation heat before someone took out my drive tire . The car cost me nothing, I had a blast, and I got 125.00 for the car when I scrapped it.

yes, its my trailer... its an old homemade job and was built to tow a 70 chevelle stock car, so its a little narrow .It has served me well though as I've had it for nearly twenty years - lots of race cars, demo cars, parts cars etc...
