i thought the definition of a funny car was that the entire body tilted up on the chassis... not all of those cars look to be that way

a little help here?

The first funny cars were so named because the wheelbase was altered and the body stretched, moving all wheels forward. This looked funny so the name stuck. The "floppers" came a short time later.

Hows about some Gas Ronda



Powered by another great SOHC, the 427.

My kids thought this car was funny.  I think he's running nitrous - just through the A/C vents.

       Hey Lee, How about this shot of Gas Ronda's Mustang?


       



       While I am a MOPAR man at heart, I still have respect for some of the others like Gas Ronda and Mickey Thompson's Mustangs!
