    No one was injured. Lets just say that it was being moved without my knowledge, and fell off a trailer at 60mph, cartwheeling 4 times down the freeway:mad:

  5. I found a Prefect in the bush up here last week.Body is tough so I cut the windshield frame out of it. Sue me.....
     
  6. this thread has me thinkin' again... the ford prefect i posted about last month is still for sale and i just found a fuel injected 4 cyl with about 350-400 hp. the engine was originally in an S10 truck and ran high 11's. anyone else think this would be a cool set-up??? with minor modifications compared to stuffing a small block in there, plus with the 8000 redline of the 4 cyl, imo...this would be different and badass

    The Hurst gasser passer got it's top chopped back in the late 60's-early 70's. It ran for a few years as the gold getter. It was repainted black with flames by another owner and ran unsuccessfully for a year or two. It sits today in a garage in Erie Pa. where it has been for at least thirty years.

  13. That's the Surfers Paradise track, I used to love that place. Remember that car. There were lots of Holden I6 powered gassers then.
     
  14. Very cool thread. Amazing what you run into while searching for TOTALLY unrelated items!
