How long can the old cars run ?

According to nhra forever, they just let all the old stuff back in 1955 and up in Stock

Does this mean there will be a "new" version of a blown ford?

Not a new version of a blown ford, a resurrection of an old one with the new rules,
i.e. a 300 h.p. 57 ford. Should be a killer again.

I knew I was keeping my spool,axles & 6.17's from my 55-64 10 bolt for something.
Doubt if my Dana would be acceptable.

Same for my old T-16's. Back to the three speed I guess.

The 57 Fords are not in the class guide, therefore they can not run.

Andys dad · 10-26-2010, 08:55 PM

They will fix that I am sure

Why allow older cars if you don't put them back

I think they use to be there - right Tony?

:-) peace

Watch out for the 1957 Rambler Rebel 327 four door sleeper.The second fastest 1957 production model,behind the Corvette.
