Few pictures taken by Johnny no gas from his racers edge forum.

Sean Mullins 9'' rear end has been built tuff... they say it's an all new rear end fabrication nothing like our B-series factory cars...
The Purple BA was driven on the street only a few weeks back; rear rubber was a M/T radial for street duties.
