The I had a bad day thread. Anything goes.
 
Ben and I invested in a 9 sec. street legal drag car to flip. Turbo charged Chevy V8 built on a 1980 Pontiac Sunbird platform. Great original stock body and trim, everything else built up for the track, and at least $4k less than build cost. Day 3 and hood pins shear at 80 mph with hood smashing windshield, bending top and windshield frame, and hinges tearing out of cowl.:(:mad: Thankfully, Ben only had minor cuts from the flying glass.

Slap on head, I could have had an SVX.:(

Gene

PS: It purred like a kitten at idle and roared on acceleration just like Ben and Dave's SVX racer.
