Beautiful machine nicely shot. Oh how the times have changed with regard to equipment
The changes since the 50s have been unbelievable. These used to be 10 second cars, but probably a bit faster now. I remember watching Don Garlits run a record setting 5.79 and thinking nobody could beat that time, now they're in the low 4 sec.
Nothing like a solid axle under the front and a "Jimmy Huffer" atop the engine to define a Gasser!!! An underhood shot would have been icing on the cake.
I always dreamed of owning one of the straight axle cars.
