Default NHRA Museum visit

Had a couple of hours in L.A. on Thursday afternoon so I grabbed an Oldsmobuick from Thrifty and sped out to the NHRA museum in Pomona. I got there at 3:15 and was the only one there until they closed at 5:00.

Replica of Tommy Ivo's 1961 "Showboat" 4-Nailhead Buick, 4-wheel drive dragster. The real Showboat, converted to a Riviera-bodied exhibition car, is being restored to go on display beside this breathtaking replica.









Tommy Ivo's T-bucket, built in 1956 using the Grabowski car as a guide.
