41chevy Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 That White reminds me of one in the Hot Rod Magazine back in about 1965. It had a 12 cylinder engine and I recall the driver had to look out the front vent window.mike Could be, the White / Allison was originally owned by Jim Lytle who ran it in California in the 60's. Jim also raced a Quad Allison powered Fiat. Tex Collins owned Cal Automotive that made Fiberglass T bodies and other glass hot rod parts. Here is Jim Lytes / Tex Collins Fiat. 2 Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34657-wicked-wednesday/page/9/#findComment-248884 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck P Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Sometimes wicked lies under the skin.This has gotta be a handful to drive, aluminum-head 427 hooked to a TH400. Local body shop near me built this up in a clean Chevette resto. Dummy pipe in the back..... real 3" exhaust tucked up real close underneath.I got a shot of the engine over the weekend. Car is currently on ebay.
