dragster

Showing the california boys how its done!

We've been shown...now what's your point? ( that is neat little dragster though)

 

You might want to put some form of propulsion in there if you want to show anybody anything. I could beat that thing walking backwards, as it sits.

 

It is neat,,but I wouldn't try to put a motor in it and run it..that frames not safe,,

 

Neat car, did you build it? Did you get it running after the pic was taken? Will it ever run? Looking forward to seeing some time slips, because as we say out here. "when the green flag drops, the bullshit stops.."

 

Yup... actually, I'd consider running a Briggs & Stratton in it, make a bitchin' pit runner!

 

Looks like something from the late 50's, early 60's. What's the story?

Cool pic.

 

I dig the pic.

 

Gee, thanks. For the past 75 years, we Californians have been trying to figure out this whole drag race and hot rod thing.

 

Salt 'n' butter...

 

Pat Bilbow showed the West Coast what a rail looked like in 1959 with the Eliminator chassis made in Wilks Barre, Pa. So why are you building a Scotty Fenn T.E. 448 style chassis that he built in Inglewood, Ca? I'm confused.

 

You mean the Bilbow chassis Tucci cleaned their clocks in CA with? You mean the one that was sent to England to represent an American dragster was made on the East Coast?

 

Tell me more about the Lyndwood that went to England!!!!! This is the first time anyone mentioned it.

 

Frame is tack welded,,rear is a bolt in with adjustable height and front spring is vice gripped,,cool staged photo.. perhaps a "hey look what I'm building" would have been more in order

 

Just let me say that Famous Eddie Don't speak for us all on the east coast..

 

Man, I can't wait for Famous Eddie's 7th post.
