Toymaker, I'd have to agree with you on the Multi Maverick connection.

 

Gotta make sure that Royal gets to do post #10,000!

 

I agree, awesome stuff here and awesome documentation of the history of Drag Racing.

 

Multi-Maverick was here in Ohio Till 75', I talked to Geroge about that last week....

 

spoons, it's interesting how this car has the interchangible front fenders like Georges car. Could he be mistaken and it made it out here in '72 or '73

 

Wow guess what?

 

10,000 posts on this thread and fitting here is the first photo.

 

Very cool and very appropriate!

 

Kind of weird because I was just with Tex at Blackies 50th Autorama......KARMA?

 

Deja freakin Vu

 

Royalshifter, a HUGE thanks also goes out to you for starting this thread, it's AWESOME.

 

I agree and what is amazing is that all the people that were there and legendary racers from around the world are picking up on the greatest Drag racing thread on the planet.........Thank you Ryan again for this amazing thread because of you it is still going strong.......Thank you to all the Drag Nuts from around the world for their contributions of the many never seen before photos.

looks like one of Mike Sullivans cars with differant sign writing

 

Was the Multi-Maverick run on gas as a an altered class car? I had the car in kit form via the model car company MPC

 

George said he made one pass in the car @ Kil-Kare, and ripped the shifter off in his hand!! He said he took it home and parked it and never drove it again...
He has the model sitting on the counter....That's what brought up my Conservation with him about the MM...
