Default Re: 64 Plymouth GT/EA in Ennis

[QUOTE=mr340;145564]First, I'd like to know who at IHRA will approve fiberglass replacements for aluminum body panels? I e-mailed IHRA about five years ago and was told it was NOT legal. I wish it was legal, fiberglass nose is what $2k? Aluminum nose, $20k? I'd be happy with just a glass hood and scoop and run steel fenders. They could make the fiberglass need to weigh as much as the aluminum to make things fair.

I personally was involved along with Jack McCormick in getting the glass front components approved. It was about 8 or 9 years ago and Mike Baker (IHRA National Tech Director) Ok'ed it. It was a quality glass front end and not like a typical bracket car fiberglass. You need to talk directly to Mike Baker as far as I know the ruling still stands. I dont remember the companys name (I can find out) but I know of one Max Wedge car that uses this glass in IHRA stock elim.

To many photos and text documenting the 4 hold down pins with wing nuts on the 1964 cars to doubt these cars being assembly line produced that way. A lot can happen in 45+ years.
