Arivett's drag liner history??

[JackD]

Looks like my thread has turned into a personal chat room...

They must have thought you would be busy in the phone.

Which mold is it that they have? There is the large 2 engine car (Haas)and there are 2 smaller cars (one is electric). Then there is the original car that is more like a funny car (that Kenny Hoover drove) with a lift off body.
So which one is it?

This Arivettmobile is the flip-top 'liner Hoover drove. I saw it run at the drags with Ed Vickroy driving back in the late '80's. The body design has great potential but the vehicle never had enough horsepower to prove its worthiness.

I saw it at either the Winter Nationals or World Finals one year, don't remember which. Maybe Nicky can recall the time period, the kids have so much memory left. Less beer over a protracted period of time.
