Not sure what NHRA rules on a monodoor is...but this would have to be a challenge first!

Didn't Ian Roussel tear one of these apart and put it on a Boxster frame?  Waaaay too ambitious....

Funny Cars have a flap in the roof for escape purposes.  So that’s the solution.

The BatVan only had one door, what if it rolled onto that side and caught on fire?   What if the Sebring landed on the lid?

Someone's put a ton of work into that thing only to unload it for $1500. I wonder why they don't source a cheap running engine and throw it in there.

As far as emergency egress: I bet those plexi windows would kick out really easily.

IIRC my buddy has a 2.0 914 engine in the back of his shop.  If you're serious I'll check it out.

In reply to 914Driver :

I have enough ACVW problems these days...and i am absolutely out of parking behind the house.  I do like having Type 4 motors around though!
