That reminds me of the street in front of our High School in the mid 70’s. Every morning any kid that had a V8 would be out on the street in front of the school with a bunch of other kids just doing hole shots for as long as we could before the cops would eventually get around to showing up. One morning we had a State Highway Patrolman show up & just told us to knock it off, then as he was leaving he proceeded to smoke the rear tire on the ‘72 Plymouth Fury he was driving. Great times back then that bring great memories today! Good Day Everyone!
Love that its Stick Shift with a Hurst to Shift a 4 Speed Gear Box, takes me Back to the Day at Maple Grove where everyone shifted myself included! Great Car!
Wow that Was The Best and anyone else out there That's watching this also Thinks that That was the Best please give him a Big Thumbs up Too Thank you from Joey in Honolulu Hawaii Aloha ✌😎
Gotta love 55 Chevy drag cars. Brings back some great memories for me. 1969, my 331ci Corvette small block (500+hp), 4 speed, 4.88's in my 55 210 2 door Chevy street car. Come off the line at around 4K shift at 7800 and ran a best 11.96 at 114+mph. Ah yes, the good old days. I loved banging those gears !
High rpm small block, muncie and 4.56 or 4.88 gears was the std back in the 70s/80s I really miss that time. Many guys had them as dailies. 11s is still cooking today let alone in the 70s
@@gordocarbo Thanks. I worked in a speed shop 6 years part time [while in college full time] late 60', so I couldn't drive a slouch. After I sold my 5-5 (big mistake) in '70, I picked up a 64 Chevelle 2 door hardtop, 6 cylinder stick. 6 months later the Chevelle was sporting a slightly modified 68 - 302 Z28 motor, Pontiac Muncie 4 speed and a 66 GTO posi rear with 3.90. Oriiginally silver, painted 68 Caddy Nottingham Green (Emerald). Car was quick as it was so light (3100 lbs+ w/o driver). Had this car for 10 years before I sold it (another mistake). Another gear banging, high RPM small block (8200 max). By the way the 5-5 was painted 69 Caddy Sapphire Mist blue.
Awesome. I was 15-17 in early 70s an drive a gutted 66 Chevelle with 427, 4speed with 488 gears. Dumping clutch at 5 grand an hooking gears was great. Love watching these Gassers. Best damn racing an drivers out there👌👍👏🍻I only got into 11 teens. Fast for me at time
Love those gear banging shoeboxes. Guess he went to hit the chute and hit the wipers instead, lol. No, that was just classic how those wiper blades got pulled back. All those old chevys used to do that.
hell yeah i love the 55s my dad has one and when i was little my dad would pick me up at school in it small block with a 4 speed still drive today banging gears love it
Thanx , Love That Spartan Interior, Clean Dash & No Head-liner & Definately Has Wood & Bite, .....By the Small Lift off.... & Those Vacumn Wipers Flailing At The End .... :)
The wiper's lol i have a 53 bel-air ls3 6speed and when i get on it hard i have the same issues with the wiper i guess the chevrolet guys didn't think there cars would be hauling at 150 mph +.

Big Block??
You are so right.
Watched it twice, almost brings me to tears. Great memories
He hunted the other guy down like a wild dog.
Lol. I think the other guy had stopped.
Like a feral badger all hopped up on mountain dew and steroids
and then lost his eyebrows!!

I saw this slogan on the back of a drag racing car:
"REAL GASSERS HAVE THREE PEDALS."
Throttle, brake and parking brake?
@@kkoch666 No. Gas, brake and *CLUTCH.*
Now that is American Muscle ya'll, git er done very well done !!!
That sounded absolutely beautiful!

Absolutely brutal launch.
It's a wonder what he could keep the car straight. Perfect run!!!!
Caught him!!😊
Best part of this run was the wipers going off to the side! Fabulous.
May 55 Chevy was a show and go pleaser first place winner at all shows in California
You need a parachute on that Bad Boy 55 Chevrolet which is Breathe Taking Beautiful 😍 🤩 👌
He blew the windshield wipers off! LOL
Thx for the ride!
RAW & FITFULL AS A WELL PLACED CONCEPTION !!
Come to think of it... Both Her Wipers were doin' the same thing near the finish line.
Nice run, Thank you!
Wow what a beast!! Them gear changing are bad ass!
That was AWESOME!!
Cool Ride and super sounding Chevy.
Love the wipers!!
Thanks for the ride!
Yeah us to man! I've been in these kinda cars man. And I was hooked
Awesome fun. The way it should be!!!!!
Man! Caught his ass! Whoa! Love the wipers! Lmao
Love the way those wiper blades flip sideway...🤣
Man, this is better than any drug rush. And I've tried em all. This tops all of em.
Wipers got a lil shaky at 1000' but we managed to straighten her back out
Driving that beauty like a MAN. can watch this over and over again.
The wipers understood the assignment.
I was gonna put shit on this but then I realised the car is 7 years older than me. Still rocking.
My 56 wipers do the same thing at the top end !
I approve of that gear jammin!
Ooops!!! There go the wiper blades!! ROFLMFAO!!!
That gives me such a rush . Awsome
Bad ass ride!!!. Lol loved the ride..HAMMER DOWN LET HER EAT!!!
Awesome man! Funny to see ur windshield wipers go .. uh bye bye :D
Didn't see that 1st time around. Had to go back for seconds. HAHA
Made the sub rumble! Love to take it thru some drive-thru restaurants. WHAT? COULD YOU REPEAT THAT!
Looks like he needs a new wiper transmission ! 🤣
Reeled em in and let off before the stripe like a real og! Haha she gets singing up in high gear that's fer sure
Awesome
My 56 chevy wipers did the same,vacuum operated
Bang shift that puppy! sounds really good.
Damn straight!🚀🏁🤘
Love old school muscle 💪💪
That’s how you do it kids
Im building a 64 thunderbird to run as a gasser. 460 bored and stroked to 557, and a Muncie M22 mated to a 385 series bellhousing
The wipers said fuck that!! Sweet ride
vacume wipers, total trip!
Now I’ve heard of blowing someone’s doors off but I ain’t never seen anyone blast their wipers off the windshield before lol!
Did the windshield wipers blow off?
It amazes me that so many people are incapable of writing a grammatically correct sentence.
If you can read it don't worry
Say that in German.
Hank Dagmar .....awwwwww..... itssssss. Gonna bi ok
Aww Henry it is "okay” we are all just car folks here. Not English teachers.
JUST BEING ALIVE IN A 55 VERY VERY COOL !!,,,,,,,,, HOW COULD YOU NOT LOVE A 55 CHEVY €€€€€€€€€€€€€ BOBBY. RAT CITY GASSERS. 😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈
I love mine!
Did you sandbag the other car>?
Hell yeah.. take it to the house....
wow! very exciting!
Get it done across the pond! 👍👍👍😎😎😎😎😎
Fuck yeah, I like how the wipers flew back
what carb is that ??
Wow! Just wow!

Wow......you the man
Oh yes I've rode with you before so fun your crazy but I like it
Nice job.
what does this car run? pleaseee
Damn... the windshield wipers went into hypersonic mode!!
So much power the wipers came on lol
The wind shield wipers are like fuk it, we quit, too much before the 1/4 mile is up
Yeah but what did he run?
COOL!
Nice.
And the wipers signal a win
Nicely done
Yes my wiper blades did the same thing so I took them off and the motor out
That really messes up the cables on the wiper transmissions. Pain in the butt to climb underneath the dash and fix them.
Thats a piston motor that's runs on gas. Awesome.
Hot dam! get em' !
Chasin em down
my wipers do the same at about 105 mph ha ha..
And the wipers say get out of my way
The wiper's lol i have a 53 bel-air ls3 6speed and when i get on it hard i have the same issues with the wiper i guess the chevrolet guys didn't think there cars would be hauling at 150 mph +.
Wow so cool
Wow ...
