Isn't that the original Bill Burke 'Pumpkin Seed' car? It sure looks like
it. Bill went something like 203 mph with a 6 cylinder Ford Falcon motor in
1961!  So 48 years later a TV personality stuffs in a 572 inch big block
running on H2 and goes 4-5 mph SLOWER!   

 

I enjoy all things mechanical and appreciate the craftsman ship displayed on
some of the shows. But, P  l  e  a  s  e, why lionize a useless hollywood
spectacle?  Yes, hollywood is spelled lower case!   Flame away . . .
