So my buddy has a 347 in his car, and hes been trying to find a place to fix it that deals with pushrod motors and will deal with C&L MAF's cause many places don't. So i followed him to Outrageous Mustangs in Jackson, NJ this morn so i could give him a lift back home, and we got to see big daddy's car...in person...right there...in front of us. He was like, "whos big daddy?" so i pointed to the BFG poster on the wall with him pulling the wheels, and he goes OH ****! Sry if this is random, i just thought it was really cool.

Heres the car btw...

By the title, I thought you were talking about Don Garlits.

At the risk of sounding stupid, didn't he die a while ago?

No, that was Ronnie Sox of Sox & Martin. He had 5 NHRA Championships and was winner of more than 50 events. Don Garlits (the man we have to thank for viable rear engined dragsters) is still around.
