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

Hi Guys
Does anyone have any pictures of a 63 split window Corvette that ran around the SF bay area that was run by Litton and Dukes and was called The Asphalt Eatter ? I think that it ran in B/MSP. Latter it had a stroke motor that Tabuky (sp?) the indy mechanic help assemble.

This was my long ago former neighbors (Mahnken) car. Tangerine hued Fiat won UDRA blown altered points series afterward it was clothed in a Mustang and viola The Psycho funny car.

 

GBP...

 

You can just feel the power and acceleration.

Odd Couple...

 

Looks like San Gabriel.

 

No doubt about it, that is San Gabe

 

Yup, that's the Santa Fe Dam in the background.

 

The only thing better that these posters was the radio anoucements..."SUNDAY, SUNDAY"..........

 

Indy 1967 Top Gas, Rick Tope, Michigan, far lane, Dick Padar, Ohio, near lane. Both ran 426 late model hemis, pretty rare for T/G.

 

I thought it was rare to see a pair of 426's back then, especially in top gassers.

 

"Hand Grenade Harry" Hibler...

 

whats that big ass cover under the liner above...? he have one of the engines he was building in the back....?

 

Part of the drive line for the Allison. Knowing Jocko, I'm sure it was adapted from something no one else ever heard of.

 

Rick, keep 'em coming!! Thanks! (sort of a SWAG, but think this might be the Greek versus Vance Hunt, J.L. Payne driving, San Gabriel, maybe '63???)

 

Please Pm me....my Dad owned Muncie Dragway during this time...Eric
