What's the deal with this thing?

[bull]

Looks like someone grabbed a random Daytona pic for this article but they make no specific mention of the shortened wheelbase image. What's the deal with this thing? Drag car?

It's a Robin McQueen custom.

For what purpose?

[JB400]

It's an altered wheelbased car.  More popular on the A/FX cars of the 60's.  This car comes to mind. It's a drag racing deal to get more weight distribution on the back.

Yea, I know about the changing of the wheelbase for advantages in drag racing but I was asking about this specific car. Not sure why else they would do it but it seems odd to me they'd use a Daytona to do it with. Hope it's not a real one.

Robin is a Photoshop master. ;-)

That's good to hear.

Oh, gotcha. Should I know who this guy is?

[Alaskan_TA]

Robin is a member here. He 'did' the Daytona station wagon as well.

His screen name is on the lower RH side of the photo.
