Dads old drag truck/ show truck
Sorry for the low quality of the pictures but they will do until I can find some one to scan the pictures for me.
Its a 72' with a caddy 472ci engine 68' front clip Grand torino bucket seats caddy tilt teloscopic column mopar grill with mickey T rubbers on all four corners. If you were running around KC in the 70's/80's you may have seen it. It won 2nd place radical custom at the world of wheels car show to a truck that had shag carpet in the wheel wells and engine bay that didnt even RUN it was pushed and rolled off a trailer he drove his every day! But he did get to shake George Barris's hand. |
