I don't recall what was in the Bird for power, but the Willys Thrushmobile ran a roller cammed 430 Lincoln.

The first one is Mickey Bogden from Canada. Unique front bumper is had crafted from aluminum and polished. Looks original except there is no flat place with slotted holes for a license plate. He says it weighs 10 pounds. We also forgot Gordon Payne, although the only way he could get the wheels up on that car is with a jack.

John. Tried to find a picture of your ‘Bird with a jack under it but to no avail. Here’s a pic of Gordon driving it and also another shot I found of the kind of competition Gordon was lined up with.

Great shots of the 'Birds! My wife has little interest in this site untill I tell her there are T-Birds on it. Thanks for the posts.

There's an angle for convincing her to go to Columbus. There are always some 'birds.

On a quick look through - I'd say that Black is a pretty popular color for drag T-birds.....

There are always some 'birds. You know Charlie I would have no problem getting her to come to Columbus but as a teacher she can't get away at that time in the year. She did say that she might be able to do without me for a week so I could drive back there one year, which I hope to do sometime with the Alaskan on the back of my truck and a Front Engine Dragster in tow.
