B and B is adding roll bars and cage to Jim Lindsay's land speed project. The car will be powered by a souped up model "A" engine prepared by B and B with machine work done by Dave and Brian at Albany's Carquest. The motor is backed up by a '39 Ford transmission and a V8 quickchange built by Hot Rod Works of Nampa. Jim narrowed and Z'd the model a frame to fit inside of the steel 27 T roadster body. The front axle is from an Anglia as well as the spindles and wishbones. He is going to run spindle mount dragster front wheels , a metal, lake's type nose, full hood and body cover to cheat the wind. It will compete in the V4F modified roadster class at Bonneville speed week in Wendover Nevada August 2010.
