I think I'd have to make a wall art piece out of that rail
I'm waiting for my 392 Chrysler to arrive.
Seriously, I bought the car on a whim and I've been hopelessly searching for its history since. (No luck, insofar.) Based on the car's construction and wheelbase, I believe it was a top fuel or junior fuel car. I'd like to recreate the original build if I ever find its origins...
That said, I'm getting older by the minute and vintage events are relatively long hauls for me. (Been there, done that with our funnycar ventures.) I'll not be quick to throw the family finances into another race car, yet the fire still burns...
I have a cherry little 283, however. It would make for a cool 2x4 or injected screamer in the old dragster... my wife thinks she'd like to drive and 11's suddenly seem sensible. [S

Yea, it's a great car.
He fired it up while we were there.
The owner has never driven it or even sat in it till we showed up. They pulled it in the garage and turned it off. The guy standing in the alley is the owner.
The first to comment on YouTube said it looked like a clone but, it's the real deal.
Been thinking about Hemi's. [S
They are few and far between. Need to stumble on to a 331 or 241. Any news with your stuff Iron
[P
No, they weigh around 900# if that helps
There's not a thing wrong with a 331. They're physically the same size and look the same as a 354 and 392
Nice score Iron. I'm watching local ads. Some early Desoto stuff has popped up recently. My understanding is the 331 may be the best option for an "affordable" hemi.
Any idea what it might cost to ship a crated hemi across the nation[S
