   [img]https://images.fiero.nl /userimages/Craig71188/20231014_140515.jpg[/img]Found a Huffaker clone I have been looking for and got it home last night. Over 10 years stored in a trailer outside Charlotte, NC. SCCA GT2 car, TONS of spares! I may have some SD4 stuff to sell off eventually - also came with lots of spare Webster gears, at least two complete gearboxes and at least one new gearbox case. Best of all - a set of the original full size Huffaker blueprints.

Great find!
You stated "Huffaker clone". Do you know who built it? The body panels look interesting too.[This message has been edited by R Runner (edited 10-14-2023).]

The P.O. built / had it built from the original full size prints. In this case, he actually revised some of the front suspension geometry and the uprights are a newer design. As to the bodywork, not sure which molds they came from - they differ a bit from others I have seen with the wheel arch's being a little thicker 'glass / less flexible / hold their shape a bit better than others I have seen.

That chassis looks super light! How much does it weight?

those tires look stickier than a booger on your finger.
I bet that thing is fun.

I have not had it on the scales yet, but P.O. stated 1800 lbs.

Well the ones on it are a bit crusty and hard from 10+ years of slowly baking in the trailer. I will say fresh ones are very grippy, but (speaking from experience with the GT1 car) - they will spin out of slow corners!!!
