That hydro would almost knock the windows out when shifted at full throttle. I had no idea what I was building back in 68. Local John Labuda has a 56 gasser he takes around,he usually at Norwslk.
That ‘55 sounds awesome. I’m friends with John and his car helped inspire my build. I would drive my Lemans to Norwalk and John and Arnie let me pit with them starting in 2018. Hopefully I get to line up with him this year. They are great guys.
