..... Joe and Frank Pisano's '69 Corvair flopper .......... driven and destroyed by the "Kamikaze Kid", Sush Matsubara

I remember that car. Super job.

Lovely model - hope you don't mind me copying the pictures to a reference file ?
The pin line and fogging are great.

The chassis came from a Polar Lights Gas Ronda funny car kit  

Sush Matsubara was hard-headed to say the least. He tried to drive the Pisano Brothers Corvair like he drove his Fiat fuel altered ........ and the results were disastrous .............. a beautiful car was destroyed ............. refusing to back off the throttle after a wheelstand (from the right-hand lane), he rode the wheelstand all the way to a collision with the left lane outer retaining wall ............ and this is all that was left







  

The AA/FA were some cool to watch race. You never knew which way they would go or how the driver would react to the car. Ah yes the Good Old Days.
