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

I heard this car is being restored...anyone know the truth in this?

 

Yes it is. Should be almost done by now. Vinnie Musicaro from Long Island is restoring it. Jack Merkel was present for the first fire up of the new motor and tuned it for Vinnie.
