Somebody PLEASE buy this thing, SMOKIN' Deal for $5500! It would be mine if I didn't already have 2 vintage cars I'm trying to get finished. Lots of history with this car, multiple overall wins at the Frontier 500, MINT 400, and a few more off I can't think of.

Re: Ex-Ragland Woodstuff Chapparal For Sale!
Here's a picture of the car, I belive was the first race at the MINT 400 with Larry standing there. I think 1983 maybe? If you were there please confirm the date.

Cardboard body was for local AZ races. Larry's crew chief, the great Jimmy Selsted, would make an incredible cardboard body with louvers, wings, etc. that was used mostly in ADRA races. He would always use Clutch Cargo as the driver of record name. This kept up entries at the local races.
He also brought the cardboard body to the Mint 400 so people could sign it. He would charge $1 to sign the body and listen to the Porsche engine. Gambling money.

TB, don't even get me started on you my friend. Here's a guy who LIVES for the old school stuff and drives a Prius to work (with an Obama sticker on the bumper). Time to put up or shut up TB, you can only be a spectator for so long before you have to man up and buy a race car and see if your marriage is strong enough to endure a couple seasons in the desert. Maybe YOU'RE askeeered of the wife!!!! Love ya man, see you at the 500.......
