An interesting drag car from the day.
"Low she sits on five spoke wheels
Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

You're welcome.  Always good to see day two mods on a Shelby from back in the day.  That Hilborn mechanical injection with the 302 looked potent back when she raced.  Also cool that the car raced against Shirley Muldowney in a drag race, she driving a 63 Corvette Split Window 327.

Original owner Walt Walls was a great guy to talk to...used to see him at many shows here in Massachusetts. Glad his sons still own it.

I was just at the 2025 Carlisle All Ford Nationals and saw "Snoopy" there.

Suberb car, thanks for sharing
When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.
