OK, so what was your favorite car?
I have one in mind, very unique, one of a kind design & successful early drag car....
I'll try to find a photo

& it actually worked, first car to go 150 in the quarter mile : http://www.hotrod.com/articles/the-l...y-bustle-bomb/

Bustle bomb is unique for sure, but gosh couldn't pick a favorite. I kinda knew Jim Bucher, whos Chevy powered top fuel dragster was there, so I'm partial to it, but don't you have to wonder how Don talked people outta the cars he has acquired? Musta paid unreal amounts for some of them.
