this dragster has some history. It was the creation of Scotty Fenn, who went on to be one of the important early dragster chassis manufactures. The car was run by the Spaghetti Benders and had Cadillac power. At some point, Nick Arias ran his GMC-six engine it. Later still, the team of Cook and Bedwell reworked the car and broke the 160 MPH mark at an astounding 166 MPH at Lions Drag Strip...

Antique Doll, bought for $200 by a 17 year old in 1974. It had been racing in Top Elimniator at Lions and other So Cal dragstrips. You probably spent more than that on your last cell phone
