History Drag cars in motion.......picture thread.

Phillip:
Is there a better shot of the Fuel pump set up in that article??
I thought it was a typical Enderle remote deal.. but then you look closer..??? Maybe its just the angle.
Geez what a small Tank for a blown car.
That is one nice Willys though I dont recall it.
Thank you

 

The Speed Sport scoop, and "Chizler Too" painted on the grill insert has always lead me to believe there was some connection to Don Maynard, or the Greek. Love to know what it was.

 

Always one of my favorite CC covers.

This is still a GREAT thread. Anyone have any old pics from Alton, IL???

There was a short while that a few cars were trying Champ car quick change rears for strength and weight. That was when the 9" wasn't enough and the purpose made rears weren't available yet. This is probably one of those rears, with the live axle. IIRC, there was a problem keeping them attached to the frame.
