I just don't know what to say. After all the hours we put in to this bloody funny car she had a failure during warm up. Cracked the crank pulley hub and machined some huge grooves in the front of the crankshaft. To say I am devastated is an understatement. I'm not sure what we are going to do, but this is it for the near future. No time, no patience and no money left. Sorry guys.

No rest for the wicked. Kieley detailing Muttley ready for her to race next weekend, while it hails!

Finally got it to the point where we are ready to race next weekend at the Nostalgia Drags in Mildura.
Its been a massive 6 months, but I am very proud. We fabricated mounts and installed the big block Ford and powerglide trans. We re-wired the whole car. We painted and modified the chassis to suit. We rubbed back 40 years of who knows what sort of paint, then repainted the old girl. Fitted new fuel system. And about 101 other jobs. We did it all ourselves, in a crappy 2 car shed. Huge thankyou to my family and friends, Auto One, Advance Headers, Infinity Signs, Penrite Oil and anyone else who helped out.
I present to you 'WITCHCRAFT'.

It's been a thrash, but the new Funny Car is nearly ready for the Nostalgia meeting in Mildura in 2 weeks. Note, the blower belt was left loose while testing everything!

Something magical is coming !
