    How about a poser dragin wagon?

    I got a flat tire last summer and put the spare on. It definitely had the "look".
    When I saved the photo on my computer I even labeled it "Drag Look"

    Hahaha yeah, I know. I was thinking the same thing myself when I posted it. I almost mentioned it, but now you've done it for me.

    Great thing is that the wagons will hook on a pretty small tire... all of that rear weight bias is good for something. haha

    This is one of my favorate Drag Wagons of the 70's Tons of Fun, it Usually had Gary Wards wife Charlene Driving it. A true T-41 Nosed 1972 Lemans wagon, the T-41 option gave the car the GTO like front Clip

    There was also Jack Mullins running his 63 Catalina Safar for about 20 years, I saw it run in the mid 70 at Indy, much later than these mid 60's shots.

    I know its not like me to post anything that does not have an arrow head on it, but I also liked these Olds Vista's, There were 3 drivers that I can remember, Paul Mayo, Dick Griffin, and Don Troxel.

    I just pulled these off the web I have no Idea Who they Belong to.
