Bitchin drag Mustang

interesting photos from Rods and Sods

the wagon wheels sorta throw me... there aren't any indications of an engine, or horse hookups, so is this mechaincal? Or just gravity drive? Cool signature gimmick, the Moon Eyes Lions and bears pulling this cart.. .. makes me wonder how those sheep are dealing with the team mates on the pull best christmas tree ever?

First time I've come across the Stone Woods and Cook gas coupe mustang Dark Horse 2

EJ Potter, the Michigan madman tried unreal power in bikes and cars, most famous for small block Chevy powered Harleys

He built stuff like a 1957 Plymouth stuffed full of an Allison airplane engine that ran nearly 150 mph in a period of time before Funny Cars existed. One could argue that EJ had the first one.

Learned about it in the Feb 2011 Hot Rod magazine, Roddin at Random. Too bad Hot Rod isn't more focused on drag racing and hot rods instead of new Chevy LS engine head tech articles and putting LS engines into a 1979 Camaro. When did a 79 Camaro with any engine ever define "Hot Rod"?
