Hot Rods The ALTERED thread

I’m just 20 minutes up the road from Linden, Ca, my sister lives there. There’s Cortopassi’s and Dondero’s living there also, I wonder if they’re related to the famous racers.
I noticed the names Errecalde and Miner on the door, one of the Miner Bros of TA/FC fame? Bob Panella’s shop is right up the road also.

 

Guess they didn't have a crank center line to ground rule back then.

 

Last picture freaked out on blower location then zoomed in: valve cover is off engine moved & way back from eng8ne

 

Cover is hanging on the exhausts. JW

 

I didn’t know that Joe Amato ran a Fiat altered before he went on to be a Top Fuel great.

 

Love this one, just perfect in the "Look". Thx.

 

I have a couple fiberglass bodes, not sure what i'll do with them.

 

Is that Chev an Altered or a Gasser? JW

 

Look how far back the engine is, it's an altered.
