Title: Classic Funny Car Tuesday
Post by: thatdarncat on February 23, 2016, 03:47:30 PM

Spotted this photo on the internet today ( not mine ). You see quite a few pictures of Dyno Don & Chrisman's car, but not many of this one.

Can't say as I've ever seen that one. Looks pretty cool, as those years of funny cars are my favorites. And that one appears to have a very short injection set-up, rather than the typical blown engines of the day.
