Anyone know anything about this car? Like Drive train setup, weight etc? Is this one of Crosswhite's old cars? I was thinking Frito (Rick) and I had a conversation and he mentioned Walsh Fuel sticker, can anyone confirm? were is the car now?..

i cant open the link on my work PC, for some reason its blocked. If its the 64 dodge with walsh fuel on the side, Tony Zarb from milford Michigan owns the car. Its a Crosswhite Bros. Car. I believe the engine is a legal origional barton piece, freshened by Tony Depillo. The car is as a cool as it gets.

That Tank Crosswhite is one of the coolest race guys around in my opinion. He always takes time out to talk with us every time we see him. Their cars are always super sano and they haul!

Yep
I know his current car get its done, I dont know what it would take to make that car NSS legal, i guess it depends on what class...I seen it run 8.70's in the heat earlier this year at the Classics....
I bet that car would go 50's in good air.

The 64 Dodge with the Walsh Fuel on the doors, is an old Crosswhite car. I don't know the weight but it did have an aluminun hood and scoop but not fenders or doors.
The 64 Plymouth he has for sale now is TRICK. It has an FHO 605 inch Hemi and has gone 8.62 with the small carbs. Tank assures it can go faster!!!
His brother is also selling his Max Wedge car. He has owned it for about 20 years. It is a legal A or B Stocker. Orginial heads and intake, engine by John Shaul!! by way of Ben Morgan.

REASON FOR SELLING?? He has a 68 Hemi in the body shop now. Building a legal SS/AH car. Tank has had MANY cars including a 68 Dart he raced in the Hemi Challenge at Indy about 4 years ago. I think Jake has that car now. He also had the 65 Plymouth (Mountian Hemi) he purchased from Doug Hurley's wife. I think Jakes brother has that car.

Whew!! I am tired now, more later.

Not to many B cars running now, 9.20 will be fastest most of the time unless Bridges is there with his Vette, it is a 9.0 car. Record is 8.89 I think...most of the B cars are 9.50-9.80 range.poppaj
