Dude. I just was reflecting on a hood ornament - maybe you & that other feller want to duke it out.

Since I actually owned a Max Wedge, I /am/ familiar with them.

Joe Weatherly's fatal wreck???

 

This should be a clay model?

This is a clay model:

 

"If you are going to drive a shoe box - shouldn't it be a Lincoln? Ronnie and Jane think so."

 

You know, in the course of tearing down an engine for a rebuild - one that had never been apart before - I'd sometimes see these great big gouges in the machined surfaces. I'm pretty sure now how those gouges got there.

Tony Nancy sits in his famous "22 Jr" Plymouth wedge powered dragster. This one had a chassis designed by Tommy Ivo and the aluminum bodywork was designed by artist Steve Swaja. It was very short by today's standards but long then with a 109 inch wheelbase (today 300 inches is normal). It had a '61 Pontiac rear end with Honda motorcycle wheels up front mounted on '34 Ford spindles. The '63 Plymouth 426 wedge engine was stroked to 482 cubic inches. This car cost $8000 to build in 1963.
