Re: Dick Harrell drag car (new thread)
Do any of you Chi town guys know if Dukes is still in business. Best Italian beff sandwiches I ever had.Austin Coil lived right down the street. I thought it was 79th and Archer.
Lets see if I can send this with out a screw up.

Re: Dick Harrell drag car (new thread)
John has been into so many different areas. Street rods to custom Harleys and now does design an one off things for Harley factory.Very talented.He built the Schumacher cars of the 70s the Mickey Thompson Maverick and 2 Grand ams.
Barry Setzer cars and the list goes on.You could buy a complete car with and ED PINK blown fuel engine and a top of the line Buttera car and know it would run good just like you could a street car.Then it was up to you after that unless you hired Ed Pink or others to do all the rest. Like a Fred Gibb car Yenko or others. you knew it had all the right parts.

Re: Dick Harrell drag car (new thread)
I will try to post this. It may show why you find more people that loved Dick Harrell for more than just the cars.
He would have been way ahead of the teams out there today just because of his personality and charm.
