Thanks for the input Curt. I see alot of similarities as well. Not all Nance push bars are alike, but about 75% are, and mine matches those with the bottom of the rear vertical bent forward to protect the bottom of the tank cover. Also, the use of short pieces of tubing to brace the corners of the cage look like Nance. I found a bunch of pictures of Nance cars, and the cars from the year they won NCRA and WOW look very similar. I would like to see the Moore Pepsi Challenger frame to see the front of the frame and how they mounted the coil overs. Also, Nance was making the front of the rear rear radius rods, adjustable up and down with a sliding mount on a frame tube while other frame builders used multiple fixed mounting points, if they had any adjustment at all.

Sure alot that looks familier here. Still wonder why the funky frame on the right side, as it looks like John's car is pretty much the standard Nance 100" frame with straight tubes in front of the firewall.

RUSTY. with all the talk and photo's of different frame design's ,it's very evident most were copies, clones to the design that NANCE started in the very late 1970's.after his sprinter and 100in were winners in 1981 and 1982 ( woo) and( n.c.r.a ) it's like all the copies of other components like the in-board brake and splined whels which NANCE developed .....
