dragster, found in weeds

I'lle call BS too... Nice lookin' shop ya got there... Any picks of the other stuff in there? I spied a 57 on top of the lift...

 

Not sure I buy the whole story. It has been sitting somewhere, there's too much crust in the ****pit and on the front wheels. The tires are really suspect. I dig it, noatter what the deal is!

 

It may have been out in the weeds, but not for very long.

 

weeds look fake maybe a photoshop project, either way it's a nice find.

 

simple. cause its in the way. outside is huge with plenty of room, and at the time it was a "old chunk of **** i need to cut up for s****"

its been mentioned here already, but people who cherish stuff like this aint exactly growin on trees. even enzo ferarri. "why would a person want an old ferarri, when a newer BETTER one is available?"

 

Still cool pictures.....Hell, I bought in at first. Now my dreams of finding one are crushed thanks to you guys pointing it out.....

 

Ever met someone who owns a dragster that wouldn't take the hour neccecary to pull the motor?

 

with a spun bearing, or tossed rod? yep

not to mention, who knows why its out there. old boy coulda had it in the shop "gonna fix that thing one of these days. . ." cacks, leaves the old lady with everything. "i wanna park my shiney new smart car in there"

out the digger goes

 

No.
Thats not what I meant. This is why I hate posting stuff cause its so easy to be misunderstood.
I should have explained better Fiddy Four I am sorry

What I meant is Why would this guy waste everones time and look like an A**. What goes through peoples minds. Is he that lonely or have that much time on his hands.. I like to believe in people but this stuff makes you wonder

Cmon guy you are being called out..
Post some better pics and info...Or go away.

JACIN: You seeing this??

 

Me too!

 

I'm not saying it could NEVER happen, I know a guy that bought an Eddie Hill built dragster from behind a farmers barn. But that was thirty years ago and it didn't have an engine in it. Now that I think about it, that's the car that my Magnesium TorqueThrusts came off of.
Not many drag racers are gonna leave primo speed parts (injectors, etc.) on a car that they basically abandon.
And it's kinda weird that the injectors have covers on the trailer and not on the ground. Plus the helmet......and the conveniently placed Autometer tach........and the everchanging carb scoops.........and the pictures in the other threads and............

nah, no reason to be... i aint sore, nor are you it seems. no blood no foul here.

besides, it aint turned to a monkey **** fight.

YET

 

Probably BS. Then again I was told to keep quiet about the ****o dumpster Roth car as well, "go with it"....whatever......

Keep in mind boys, not everyone appreciates the SANC***Y of INTERNET MESSAGE BOARDS....hahaha.

Some folks are just having fun!

 

a monkey **** fight.....

I aint heard that one.. thats funny as H*LL Fiddy Four
OK , more important things to do.
Like post couple pics at the Drag Cars in motion thread
If I can get my scanner working..

 

Any chance this rail was stolen? Perhaps dumped in the weeds but the the trailer / tools kept or sold later? Just wondering if there are some missing cars out there that look like this one. Hope not. Gary

 

Right! I just found this in the weeds behind my house. Forgot I had it!

 

That was the first thing that came to mind when everyone started getting their ******* in a bind. Who in the hell would've thought that was true?

Who cares if the guy made the story up, it's still an interesting car none the less.

 

oh... i know! BUBBLE DRAGSTER. the previous owner set it inside this huge bubble to keep mother nature out. as for the nice intake setup on the ground. i think it jump the fence just to see what all the comotion was about. now go catch that intake and sell it to me...

 

Sorry, but the weeds DO look recently bent flat to me. I also wonder why the guy would have built a purpose specific trailer for it with fresh paint on it THEN threw the dragster in the weeds. Seems if you are going to go through all that trouble to build a trailer and show the car you're not going to then throw it in the weeds for ANY reason.

Kinda late for an April fools joke. I've pulled 4 rails out of the weeds and none had a motor or air in the tires....just don't happed that way.

 

****! i was walkin down the alleey and i coudnt help noticeing a shinny quater on the floor. as i bend down to pick it up i catch a glipse of what loos like a bike rim. so i peep over the fence and what you know. a drgaster! not ony that. theres a 322 edmunds 2x2,hillborn injectors,nos delco finned coils in the box,the matranga merc,tracy lords smoking a ***...all kinds off stuff.
ill post pics later..+ )

 

I'm calling ******** too. I've seen these pics and similar story before. I think it may have been here on the hamb too.

 

ok.. this kinda ****s, in a bad no reach around kinda way. i'm done takin this dudes side an givin him the benefit of the doubt cause he aint sayin ****. i guess it makes me kinda look a fool for hopin something like that could really happen, but oh well. i still belive in Santa anyhow.

speak up, defend your claim or retract it and have it done with. this is horse****

 

Its bull$h!t

The slicks are clearly ON TOP of the gr***. If it had been parked for some time, they be sunken a bit and grown around...flat too. They look like they have armor all on them.

Whats the point in staging this?

 

I'm with you FF. I have been giving this the benefit of the doubt, but we need some defense and proof. I will go with innocent until proven guilty, but I'm wavering.

 

I better check my weeds in the back yard. I might have a Ferrari back there or something...

 

Hey Luke - yeah I'm watching!!!!! You know what they say.....if it sounds too good to be true it probably is.......smells a bit like fish to me

The car IS WAY COOL though - and I'm sure it was "discovered" somewhere - not sure why it'd need any embelishing.


I'm gonna go back behind the garage and see what I can find....I'll be sure to post pics......stay tuned!


UPDATE: Luke, I know this is gonna be hard to believe, but WHOLLY **** look what I just found in the weeds out back.......dreams DO come true!!

I gotta go and see what else is back there!! I've been looking for a Mag 6:71 - who knows maybe my streak will continue!!

 

Good fine man,Like to hear more about it......

 

I call ********. But here is a real vintage dragster in the weeds. rather sitting behind a "collector car dealer" in CT. Its your for a mere: <table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="1"><tbody><tr><td>
