Crosley Update: Its a real vehicle !!

That drop top you got towing it aint to shabbie either, nice pair of tahtah's

 

great job on the crosley. want to see it run

 

Well, if you can get to Frankenmuth, Mi Friday night , you can see it run Mainstreet ahead of the dragsters - locked in a bitter re-match with the ex-Mancini Racing Mopar...... ! I'm even taking out the baffles......

 

OK - I have way too many projects, and I'm never going to get this to the strip where it belongs !!

One of you guys needs to make this into a proper HAMB dragster , therefor I'm letting her go - see the classifieds !

 

Update to this car. It now resides in riverside count Ca. And is undergoing a full resto and upgrades.

About that...What kind of tow set up do you have? I want to pull my 1958 camper with my '50...especially for Back to the Bricks.

 

It’s a beautiful car. But no more towing. This baby is going to do the cruz’n now.

 

I built a 1 1/4 x 1 1/4 hitch receiver for the car - tied into the frame and bumper mounts. Originally built to pull a motorcycle trailer - so plenty strong to flat tow this light Crosley. Probably not heavy enough for a camper - but you could design one that was. Or go to a hitch fabrication place and they could fab one up for you.

 

Almost done first test drive.

 

This car is very close to complete. This is the second outing at the In N Out 70th /Hot rod 70th show at the Pomona raceway drags

 

Congratulations on this milestone...have fun with it @Chris Cochrane...all set up for the best of both worlds...

 

Lookin good, Chris !! Looks like you put some real glass into it, also. What have you done to the interior ?

Hey,Chris - just came across this again. Any further updates ? Hope you and the Crosley are happily going to shows ….

 

That is so cool and with that power to weight ratio it will really scream!
