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

Thanks Mr. Guffey and I have to thank folks like you for giving us the history.

 

Hey! You been holding out on us!

That calls for a repeat of this -

 

Compliment???, do you know how much sleep I've lost due to this thread?

not to mention all the "honey do's" not "honey done"...

but it is so addictive...

 

This getting to be a Bad Habit

 

I think the reason the scoops are backwards is when they took the motor out of the boat and decided to go drag racing on land no onetold them to turn em around when they got to the track LOL just kidding

 

What a great way to end the nite. This thread is never boring

A few Ebay scores

 

dog any more pix or info on this car ?

 

Where have all these old funny cars gone. For every big named car, Jungle Jim, The Snake, Brutus, there had to be hundereds of these local cars.

 

Ain't that the truth!

 

Sorry that it is not in motion but it will be next Friday. Brendan Murry's new NTF digger is ready to rock and roll. I started cleaning off the jig to build this car on June 22 and it got to California just over two weeks ago. Since then Brendan has powder coated the frame, had the chrome done and painted the car (himself). He fired it up yesterday for the first time just before taking these pix. We tried to make it a retro looking as possible rather than one of those "gutter machine" bodied deals.
