DEEPNHOCK's 1953 Drag Car ... "The Black Car"

[JimC]

This is an incredible build. I love it!

The only problem I can see is that it's so good, it might be to pretty for the strip, and become a trailer queen. Of course, then picking a name would be easy. Call it the drag queen.

Joking aside though, this should be one speedy little beast when you're done!

Black as coal... Very shiney coal....
(Many thanks to David Parris's brother...)

Do you have a thread with more pics of the black car... not that I ever get tired of looking at the yellow one but, I have only seen a couple shots of the black car.

I think he like the picture of the back end of it since that is what most people will see anyway.

How about "Bye Bye Black Sheep"

I try to keep the build stuff over on the Racing Studebakers site at:

If it's just pic's you want, they are up at Photobucket (since Webshots went kaput...)

DeepNHock,
I have been watching you work on this beauty for a while. It is really looking great. I hope you give some of the Ford and Chevy boys a shellacking.

Good looking valve covers. I can't say much 'bout that front engine plate though.

You got sumpthin' against particle board, bub?
(Probably because you can't chrome wood)
