Seems a bit pricey, and something appears to be wrong with times/mph posted in ad.

It really isn't a Fiero anymore... Tube chassis with 1100HP.

"Don Ness built car. Mild steel round tube chassis. Car has a Steve Schmidt 588cu.in. motor. Over 1100hp. "

Isn't it strange that after a bombing, everyone blames the bomber, his upbringing, his environment, his culture, his mental state but … after a shooting, the problem is the gun?

I'm going to have to do some checking on this but I don't think this is correct. Larry's car is owned by the gentleman who owned Mr. Gasket. Franc Francis is not coming up on Facebook for me. Larry's car is a Super Duty.

I'll being checking this out for sure. If it is "one of" Larry's then I might be looking for a loan and some help in returning it to it's correct build.

It really never was a Fiero as it was only ever a DGP body on a tube chassis anyways. I always wondered why no one ever built a copy as it would not be difficult.

I see Larry at work once in a while and if I can catch him I will ask him if he knows what car out there is his. Too bad this was not last week as I saw him at the track last Saturday.


There were several Fiero drag cars back in the day but his Rod Shop car was the most high profile.

Note too that ad states this was one of three he raced. Guys in this class normally keep 2 cars or more incase of crashes or even to run at different tracks with different set ups.

I have yet to hear back from the seller. I asked him for proof that this was a Larry Morgan car. I also have heard from Gil Kirk of the Rod Shop and to his best memory there was only one car and this is not it. Mor eto come as I research this more.
