For a "Ford" it has the smallest cross sectional area for the years
available by the rule book. Other manufacturers are smaller but not a
popular as the Ford. If you can unbolt it, it's not part of the "body"
proper. The 28-29 Ford is only the most popular in gas/fuel. Street and
Modifieds are 26/27's.

This question came up on another board I read, why do more 28-29 bodied
cars 
run at LSR events? A current book on Vintage Dry Lakes races has many
photos 
of 28-29's but not one 30-31. I do know that a 28-29 firewall and cowl
section 
can be unbolted and this fact has something to do with the SCTA rule on
where 
the body/firewall starts or ends. Could someone please explain this?
Happy New
