What's Your favorite gasser??

That is COOL!!!!!!!

 

The football austin was at CHRR & fired up at the Doubletree Friday night. Sounded pretty good!

 

I kinda like all gassers......but it has to go down the track to qyalify as REAL

 

Nice ride Johnny! I'm like you I LOVE the gassers!

 

Didn't that car run M/SP ?

 

Not the fastest, nor most recognized or most famous, but the '69 Mustang
" Hi-Po 'Stang " C/G, D/G ran by Ron Whitson for the old Mayfair Auto Parts in Taylor, Mich. has my vote. I wrenched and pitted on it when I was 16, so I'm a little partial. Anybody know where that car is now??

 

Hotroddon, nope don't think so. I raced in Comp Elim. with them back in the 70's. Here's another peek for you guys.

 

Mike Salamunovich's "Studependous"! '59 Studebaker Lark

 

Streetdreams. I recall seeing that car at DD. Just dont remember what it looked like. Any picts of it anywhere?

 

I'm still building it!!

 

I Love them all but I have a soft spot for this one it is about 80% done

Being from up there in the Panhandle, maybe you can locate a pic of what was my favorite gasser......the B/G '32 Coupe (black) from Floydada, TX called the Chadwick & Hardy ( Driver Kelly Chadwick, Builder Don Hardy). This was around 1960-62 ....as I remember. Fastest car off the line I ever saw....during that period of drag racing. I saw it primarily at Amarillo Dragway.....
I've tried and tried to find a surviving pic of that famous coupe but so far have been unable to. Thought maybe you being from up there in Earth that you might know someone that would remember the car and maybe know where there is a pic..

 

The car was for sale in Lubbock in the late 60's/early 70's. I don't know where it went. Don Hardy is still in business in Floydada.

Here is something interesting in the KS version of the Football..... "Polly"-dyne is still on the nose even though it's no longer badged for Isky.

very cool

 

Koko motion is one of my favorite gassers of all time. I had this car in my head the whole time while building my Henry J.

Still wouldn't trade my car for it though.

 

I also love this car. It's legendary to me. I have heard about this car for years from many of the locals, then I found it in Wisconsin. I never owned it, but I have followed along with the build and gave my bits of the story to help fill in the gray areas for the new owner.

 

it would be a shame to see anything but a hemi in that car...but I fear we will.

 

I agree it should have Chrysler power. Even a 426 Wedge like the front fender says.

 

man i saw your car run at the meltdown drags...one of my favorites there. ya did a terrific job on it!

 

much love for the gassers here,s afew pictures i have on file thats to all who pasted pictures keep them coming
