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

This pic, show the car after Bush owned it, and was sold to Bob Dell, who used this as a stepping stone to Nitro Funny Cars and Dragsters, Bob is a good friend of mine who still gets out to the Drags and helps on my TA/FC.

 

Wow, that's a good one, lived in the A.V. all my life and don't remember an Antelope Valley Speed Center, or the car. I wonder if this was before R.E. Racing ? Nice Car and looks like it might be at the Winternationals.

 

Go dog go!!!!!

 

Any pictures out there of Art Chrisman's (sp?) direct drive Mercury Comet? One of the first gen "Funny Cars"
