FUNCO HUSTLER IV  
4 or 5 seat

Kits Starting at
$10,600

Our new Hustler IV is a breakthrough to achieve what we call Funco handling characteristics, even with a V8.  We have taken every trick in the book to compensate for the extra weight of a V8 and given birth to a new breed, the Hustler IV.  The sleek look and refined weight distribution takes ideas from our BIG 5 to make an incredible addition to our family of cars.  For those that like the traditional sandrail look with a V8, plus legendary BIG 5 handling, the Hustler IV is the answer.  Nimble handling, smooth ride, and responsiveness that make you feel like you're part of the car is what make the Hustler so special.

HUSTLER advantages versus other V8 sandrails

bullet

Handling.  This is something you need to experience to appreciate. We can't describe handling without a demo.  Come out to Glamis, let us show you with a quick ride.

bullet

122" wheelbase.  The competition uses 125 to 130"+ wheelbase lengths which slows down turning ability.

bullet

Weight distribution, the key to our handling.  We have taken extra effort to get the center of gravity and weight bias as close as possible to ideal to achieve our legendary handling characteristics.

bullet

Steering geometry, the best in the industry.  Uses Funco's exclusive SuperDuty rack and pinion power steering unit.

bullet

15gal gas tank located under the rear seats, keeps the car's center of gravity as low as possible.
