Don't know what the word was for those - those things back in the days.

 

Looks like a Hot Rod to me!

Maybe a Salt Flats or lakes racer in the making?

 

I'd lean more towards a flats / lakes / drag car. I'd very much doubt it was a street car. Gary

Back in the early 70's a friend built a street machine that he tried to have a rear radiator in. Couldn't solve the water circulation problem with cheap parts and didn't have bucks to waste on any costly industrial pumps that may or may not have worked, so he fitted a conventional radiator.
