Hello Friends,post one article from FB supermodified:
work in progress. This car is owned by Martin Holmes in Prince George, B.C. Canada. It was originally built by Gary Schlafer in Indianapolis but was never finished or run. Martin purchased it in 1990 but it was still never run and has been stored in my garage for the past 20+ years. We are now working on getting it finished, this is it mocked up with the original bodywork.
Any comment and information are appreciate,Thanks.

Its everything I hate in racecars, basically a wedge/wing with a hugely offset engine. Its also extremely ugly. For some reason I love it and that your restoring it, lol. I agree it would be a bad street car. I find it so cool, the crazy stuff people build in their garages.
Were going to rebuild our minisprint into a motorcycle powered mini 23 T bucket.

Love it!! Does the lower valve cover need an extra oil line out the side to get oil out and back to the sump?
