In 1966 Bob Tasca Sr. ran this longnose AF/X Mustang out of his Rhode Island dealership with Bill Lawton behind the wheel.The Mystery 9 soon became the Mystery 8 as the times got quicker.
Bill Ireland ran this AF/X Mustang as the Trojan Horse during the 1966 season. Originally packing a S.O.H.C. 427, Ireland campaigned it with wedge power. This was Gas Ronda's former car and exists today, restored in thatguise. Via: TWE42

Before Gotham City's caped crusaders switched their atomic batteries to power, Lincoln displayed this dynamic duo with their 1955 Futura concept car. Originally constructed by Ghia in Italy, the forgotten Futura languished until a reworking by George Barris saw it imortalized as the Batmobile.
I can't tell you a lot about this altered following my hard drive crash. I can tell you that the neatly attired crew date the shot somewhere around the mid to late sixties. A great slice of homespun drag racing.
