Had a few stored up Jackson Thomas & Goodell Little Giant George Brazee from Watertown Ct. Mooneyham & Sharp
That is a beauty and I must really like it I posted the same photo twice LOL. Back in post 311 and 660
Its built in the style of a altered. Its a double rail ch***is. It has a straight axle and a torsion bar front end. Its running 50 plus percent nitro on the track through mechanical injection. A dual drive runs the pump and mag. It runs gas on the street by efi. The dual drive is disconnected for the street. We have stayed as close as we could to a altered or fuel coupe às we could and still have a certified car for the track while still legal for the street.
It has run 8.2 on a easy p***. We were out last week ready to run a seven sec p*** until we broke the block. The entire build is do***ented on the hamb under the rebuilding after the crash thread.
As posted by DDDenney last year, this is Kenny Goodell in Don Jackson's Bantam. After the Bantam, Kenny partnered with Art Whipple on a AA/FD. He then had Ronnie Scrima and Pat Foster's Exhibition Engineering build him a flip front Mustang funny car. He p***ed away in April of 2010 after suffering a heart attack at age 64.
The 554 racing Slusser's Fiat was at San Gabriel in '63. Larry was defending his #1 spot on the 1320 Jr. Eliminator list. The tube frame Fiat was just another in a long list of challengers that couldn't get around that heavy old steel Ford.
