    Paul Strauch 15' T. Here's some specifics: the body is a OCR '15 T, fitted with brown mohair by Unlimited Upholstery of Mansfield. It rides on a rectangular tube frame with opposed coil front suspension and Jag independent rear, and all wiring and lines are concealed inside the frame. Brass lights are original '15 T, and the Tru Spoke rear rims were widened to 16 inches for the 17/28-15 Goodyear Blue Streaks. But it's the engine you're waiting to hear about, right? How about 494 inches of all-aluminum big-block Chevy with steel billet crank, aluminum rods, 7:1 pistons, roller cam, Summer Bros, gear drive, roller rockers, titanium valves, B.D.S. 6-71 blower driven 35 percent over, two 1050 Dominators, Vertex mag—all running on alcohol.

    Gary Matranga T at top half of magazine page. Start with a '57 vintage 392 Chrysler, add Forgedtrue pistons, Howards aluminum rods, Donovan rockers and valves, Clay Smith cam and valvetrain, Velasco crank, and Donovan oil system. Then top it off with a Vertex mag, 6-71 Jimmy, and a 4-port Hilborn injector, and you've got some serious street sounds. It's backed by a B&M Torqueflite, and underpinnings include a 2x4 tube frame, '77 Vette independent rear, Deuce Factory 4-bar front, four-wheel disc brakes, and a set of dragster-size tires.
