  1. Never saw one in action but they had ads in every magazine on the market around 62-64.
     
  2. One thing I never understood, wouldnt that over rev the engine when it kicked in, or did you just push in the clutch ?

    I know a guy who has a babysitter thats ex-husband bought a railcar of ww11 Hardley Davidsons still packed in the crates. Are these worth anything, actually I don't think He wants to sell them he just wants to trade and get them out of his shed.
    Anyway I tried to trade him a fuelie Corvette that a guy died in and they couldn't get the bad smell out so they sold it for scrap.I do think there is someone on Facebook that is from a forign country who is going to share a lottery winning with me so I may just buy them outright.

    I know the same guy! He also has a like new microwave oven they had just bought that he's now trying to sell. His kids gave their cat a bath, and put it in the microwave to dry it off. Seriously, nothing's wrong with it, but everything you cook in it tastes like pussy...............................................................................I am Butch/56sedandelivery.

    Chitwood thrill show had a drag car with the turboniqe drag axle . On the flyers about the show it was billed "The worlds fastest 396 cu in 325 horse power 66 chevelle"" I saw it put on a exibition . He launched in low gear then put the shifter out of gear and fired the rocket up.The car was totaled later that year. Also one was on a go kart and the driver died while using a TD unit.
