Well we go to the Hamb Drags every year. and have gotten hooked on vintage type drag raceing. We had a '36 cutdown ford (4 door sedan cutdonw to a 2 door) that we were raceing with a 301cid sbc. Ran 11.89 @115. But we want to go FASTER..... so we building this....
dont worry we'll make it safe with a full cage and equepment...

When I was a kid I built all the versions of Monograms ''Big T''. The ''Big drag was the only one I didn't follow the destrution sheet for. Always thought it would be cool to build that ''T'' for street use.

Can anyone I.D. this body and turtle deck as to manufacturer? I'm looking for this body and turtledeck for my project. Thanks! Bob Lintner

Way to go.

madmak, any updates? :)
 
Only three comments for ya:

  1. Always remember that old fashioned/nostalgia drag racing is WAY more addictive than tobacco
  2. If some is good, more is better, and too much is just about enough
  3. Put a 671 on it and run it on alky

All the best with the project
Cheers
Todd
