Art & Inspiration Hell Yeah Dragrods!

I know of one very similar to this here on Cape Cod the guy owned a bunch of old race cars and he past from the widow maker artery blockage and went in his sleep a couple years ago,and left them all to his daughter but not sure how many have ***les. The coupe had an extended front frame and deep recessed firewall and straight axle and spool rear. It would be neat for the street. And it's 4 sale

 

I like that name! DRAGROD! Does my car qualify? It runs in the high 10s and its all steel, with a 4 speed, if that helps me get into the dragrod club.

 

This was for sale for $3200 in Michigan a couple years ago

 

More then qualified Jim, love that car.

 

Bad. ***.

 

Another small shot of my coupe, I love this thread.

 

It still looks basically the same two owners later. They changed to American 5 spokes, installed an automatic and took off the 3x2 and installed an Edelbrock 4bbl, but otherwise it’s still the same.
Great thread…..

 

Here's one that got my attention back in the mid to late 60's at Sydney's, Castlereagh Drag Strip.
"The Undertaker" by Roger Hoare.

 

Local car that got donated to the local Pierce Arrow museum, the museum donated $15k back to the family.

 

Hell Yeah it's so cool!

 

Nice flame job they are fun to lay out and spray

 

This is mine, not real fast (runs 11.5) but still good for 1200 mile road trips.

 

After looking through the pics, I realized my coupe is drag inspired.

 

*****in!
