Pacesetter top fuel

Post by Andy »

Hi
This pacesetter top fueler just find its way to my home today. A friend picked it up in Stockholm for me . And its look to be in an excellent condition apart from a small crack on the nose .And its seems like it has been a shelf queen for most of its life.

That's a good looking Dragster, Andy. That's Gary Ormsby's 1986 streamliner Top fuel Dragster look alike.

This one is going to be taken to a paint shop. The same man who painted the Ferrari will take care of the top fuel.
It seems like he is looking forward to a different kind of paintjob at work.
