It used a Race Car Specialties chassis with a {{convert|254|in|mm|abbr=on}} wheelbase (long, by the standards of the era) and was bodied in aluminum by Kenny Ellis, who also drove it. In testing, it ran 7.20 seconds at {{convert|210|mph|km/h|abbr=on}}. Powered by a {{convert|465|cid|cc|abbr=on}} Chrysler hemi, it qualified for the last-ever NHRA Top Gas event, the 1971 NHRA Supernationals at Ontario, California.[2] Notes1. ^Taylor, Thom.
