    anyone have any pictures of 51 chevy or pontiac gassers? my wife doesn't want the 51 pontiac 4 door a got her, she wants my 53 ford now. so i was thinking why not make it a project for my club and do it up as a gasser and start racing it. im guessing there were not too many 4 door gassers but i already have the car and it doesn't cost my anything. i've seen plenty of 54-58 chevy gassers but i dont remember seeing any 51's. so if you have a pic please post it.

    ...this one was on Ebay about a year ago. If I had a larger garage, ..it would be in it. Dual quads on an Olds engine, 4-speed, fenderwell (spaghetti) headers; what's not to like?

    Here is what my friend Dave Ehrmann's car looked like back in the day. He won the US Nats twice in this 6-banger. Can't get more authentic or grass roots than that. Sorry I don't have any other photos. The car had a home-built Hilborn mainfold. Later, Gary

    I know this car. Ran with the Midwest Gassers a few years ago. Any idea where it ended up?

    i did some investigating...the car did not meet reserve and sold to a friend of the owner's. I believe it resides in No. IL now. Hope the guy decides to drive/race it again.

    Mine is not a gasser until it hits the track and performs well..........Until then it is a project.

  25. Love your Thames. Reminds me of one I used to watch run in the 60's that actually had a similar rust primer finish. That one was Y-block powered and was owned by a fellow who lived near Rockport, IN. When do you plan to put yours on the strip?
