This
Ford Fairmont was truly the brainstorm of Claude Saffer. We built
the rollcage on a rotisserie and then we hung the suspension parts
off the rollcage. We didn't have a frame. We went down to Daytona,
to a NASCAR trade show and picked up a bunch of stuff.
The car was 300
pounds heavier, but we had a lower center of gravity, NASCAR
brakes, etc., and a pretty strong Roush motor, so we could out handle
anything that was out there.
When NASCAR had
to downsize the cars, the Woods Brothers and others took a close
look at how it was built.
