Custom Hearse Posted January 8, 2009 Posted January 8, 2009 (edited) I found this pic on the internet that I thought everyone might enjoy.... Here's the story on this one(notice in the lower left hand corner, the "instruction sheet"). ...magazines tore funny cars apart, showed you what they were made of and what they cost? In the late 60s, SS&DI broke down one of the Jungle Jim Novas, in the early 70s Car Craft dismantled the Whipple & McCulloch Duster (total investment was approx $49,000 including tow car, trailer, spare motor, insurance, etc). In 1978 Car Craft magazine dissected the War Eagle Firebird of Dale Pulde ("55 Easy Pieces, June 78) but didn't discuss the costs involved. In the new millennium, just like in the late 70s, if you have to ask, you can't afford it. (Photo from cover of Car Craft magazine, March 72) Edited January 8, 2009 by Custom Hearse
