lets post pix of old drag cars from the day, and current old school drag cars...

Here's my '66 barracuda thats pretty period correct. I traded my buddy a guitar combo amp for it in 2004. It was built in the mid 70's and was 440 powered.

I was told by the guy I bought this off of that it was raced down in the Lower Mainland back in the 70's. At a cara show last summer the location, at least, was confirmed by some other enthusiasts. My goal is to maintain the current feel/look while having it feel a little less like the "forgotten"...

What is that? 55 dodge?

That would so cool as a nostalgic racer with an early Hemi or somthing like that.

It's a Canadian 56 Dodge Crusader. If you guys saw pics from the back you'd think it was a 56 Plymouth. Most of our Dodges (except the Custom Royal, I believe) were Plymouth from the windshield back and Dodge from there up.

When I got it it still had the poly and a 3-speed manual.. It sits on a straight axle out of a 46 Ford ½-ton. Now there's an Eddy headed 360/A833OD with an old Hurst inline shifter. I swapped in a Challenger 8¾ with 3.73's, and added discs to the frontend. The intention is to drive it regularly and race it occassionally for fun.

The back bumper is a chunk of 3" pipe with capped ends...something really easy to back into with the sling on a tow truck back in the day.

Thanks for the comments.

I just bought a 71 Demon that was raced by Max Hurley out of NC then changed to a comp eliminator car. I got it home and have not even taken it out of the trailer yet for pics! When I get home in about 10 days I will defintitely see what I bought!

Heres my wagon that I'm finishing out in vintage style.

heres my 56 PLYMOUTH.. first I 440 powered it, but now a 493 srtoker

Here is a shot of my father racing his 58 Fury somewhere between 58 and 61 at Old Bridge race track in NJ.

Here is another of him racing the Fury at some track in North Carolina same time period.

My M-code Dart being raced in the early 80s by a lady in northern California with a 383.

Same lady racing it in the late 80s after she painted it red.

As it is now.
