I've always wanted to build a dragster-style rat rod - this guy beat me to it!  This ride features all the vintage dragster accessories: stretched wheelbase, bicycle front wheels (with no brakes), blown hemi, zoomie headers, and giant slicks in the rear.  It probably could use a Hilborn-style air cleaner scoop over those carbs, however.

Would be kind of a pain to have to re-pack the chute at every stoplight, but that might help slow it down.

Yeah, this ain't no driver.  Like I always say, "Not all trailer queens are shiny!"
