It was heart breaking to see it when they got it out. There was wood jammed into both, the blower pulley starter spud and in the broken left frame rail. Standing behind the car, the frame looked warped from one end to the other.

What a bad deal. I am sorry to see Virgil have that trouble come his way. I know that was one of his favorite in the group of his Nostalgia Funny Cars.
I am glad the driver was ok also.

What a bummer! I was wondering if we'd ever see that car out here on the West Coast.

Thanks Jean!!! It's literally been a labor of love for almost 2 years to get her running and looking good again. |

Poor Hartman has had nothing but bad luck with that car. I'm REALLY sorry to see that happen.
