I can't understand why these car's aren't more popular! They're so light why do people not use more as race cars vs late abody.

Late A bodies = Heavier but more affordable / less desirable .. The best RWD A body for lightness is the 60-62 Valiant / Lancer, then you get into the crickets / Arrow / Challenger Rebadged Mitsu Cars. I have an '87? Sundace for another project sometime.

I have cut a Lot of weight out of mine - Valiants of this generation were also 3" than the Dart hardtops.
