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

This picture must be a little later because, if you'll notice, it's got those injector stacks sticking out of it now.

Sadly yes it is. The injected small block out of that car now resides in Dave Hales S&S Willys

 

Drag cars in motion, literally. Rare vintage video from 1969 U.S. Nationals, presented by Hurst Performance Center and narrated by the late Steve Evans. 5-part series will auto play. Buster Couch is the epitome of cool in the opening sequence.

Anybody ever see this car?

 

ahh, the wonderful Irwindale...lots of good times there

 

So how do think they got to the car to the spot where they used the starter, mister smarty. Or were they racing all those duallies to

 

They pulled them up!..........(we all know what you meant.)
