Don Prudhomme has found and restored both of the Snake and Mongoose haulers and funny car dragsters, they are amazing, and I finally got to see them in person. Full gallery tomorrow, here is a look

for a full gallery of the red one, check back tomorrow. For a ful gallery of the yellow one, here it is from SEMA http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2009/11/don-prudhommes-funny-car-hauler-1967.html

4th of July parade in Burlington Vermont, a dragster got the crowd interested I'm sure!

Why hasn't someone done this with a VW van?

Found in Rod and Custom Illustrated, if I recall correctly. I can't recall the artist's name, and thought I'd be able to read it. Nate Greco?

Anyway, this would grab incredible attention.

The Long Beach Motorama had a great mock up of the Lions Dragstrip, and had 6 dragsters lined up, including the Stones Wood Cook Willys, Wild Willie Borch's Winged Express, and Jim Miles' Magic

 Ever see a Don Garlits seal of approval? I've never heard of it before. This is from the tunk of the Borsch dragster

the Bowers and Paris AA/FA 37 Fiat Topolino

Escondido Nitro Night was a blast

Just a couple photos to show you how big the crowd was. This side street is a full block, and between the buildings in the below photos is an alleyway, that is to tell you how large the area is

These are just a a couple of the photos, and none of the videos... they take to long to load, and it's late already.

Have you checked out the Magnetic Brain lately? He's upped his game, and his site is looking awesome! His content was never less than great, but it's even better now!

check back often cause these are just a few of the most recent photos he's posted, it looks like he's putting content up more frequently http://magneticbrain.blogspot.com/

The team of Steinegger and Eshenbaugh are looked at on Dean's Garage

Two things about this image grabbed by attention... having the car number on the tire is cool. Easy to see, easy to change if you switch classes, and spares up space on the body for sponsors stickers or lettering. The other thing is the wind up key pushbar, I found one dragster in a video http://streetmachinemag.typepad.com/street_machine/ a couple months ago that had a wind up key, and no identification... maybe this was it
