History old drag trucks

Hey Dave

Time for an update on all the progress and carnage since your last post.
Maybe the Meltdown Drags picture with all four wheels off the ground

Also remember seeing a picture of a uni-body early 60s Ford pickup called F-100 XL running in B/FX

 

A little famous one

Moriarity : Check with Guffey, I know he can shed some light on that truck.

 

Mike, I kinda figured that. Hopefully see you at Hershey, take care.

 

My dads truck, around 1961. Raced at Old Bridge stadium, New Jersey. I wish I knew where it ended up.

 

Sure... Which Time !!

Mr. B Ranchero at NEITA Raceway in Cedar Falls Iowa. I think this photo may be by Tommy Shaw.

 

My son and I had a drag race truck 20 years ago. I find myself putting it back on the street right now and I'll tell you it's like building a car from the ground-up...you have to change or redo EVERYTHING for the street. I almost wish I never volunteered for this cruise.

 

That is Clay Allens' "Priscilla" Big Ford powered.
Watched it many times at Woodburn Dragstrip, has to be witnessed to fully appreciate it.

 

You're right about that Doug. This truck reminds me so much of the early to mid-60's when many cars weren't so nice cosmetically but flat hauled-***! Clay tuned the suspension a couple of years ago and it wasn't doing massive wheelies any more. Too bad. Like everyone else, I enjoyed the heck out of that.
