Blast From the Past Photo 1 - Hoyt Grimes' Newly Constructed Bullet Dragster


In this mid to late 1950s photo (date unknown), Hoyt Grimes is in his newly constructed dragster as it comes out of his backyard shop. The car, powered by a Cadillac engine, was constructed by Hoyt using a surplus military aircraft fuel tank. It was named the "Bullet". If anyone has information on the location of this car today, please let me know. Thanks to Hoyt Grimes for the use of this photo.
