Default Now here's a day 2 piece and a half - Mag Dana 60

Just about fainted when a pal of mine gave me the link: [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/crazy.gif[/img]

http://www.ebay.com/itm/130627292879...3D1&amp;_rdc=1

Item # 130627292879

I can't remember the last time I saw one of these (even in a magazine). I suspect this is a vintage Pro Stock piece?

Yes it is Sam. Looks to me like it has a very old funny car style coupler. It has bolt on axle tubes and I think this is the same sort of setup used under high Pro Stockers from the very early seventies? But wow. What a piece. It's so cool, and in this case, cherry too.

Interesting that it has a coupler but is around 49 inches long.
I'm guessing that since it has early Big Ford housing ends and is that length, that the axle tubes were built sometime way after the time period the case was purchased.
Coupler would indicate dragster, altered or funny car, but I would image it would have had Olds/Pontiac ends if those tubes were from back in the day.
But I'm not sure what early funny car housing lengths were back then. Anyone know?
Killer piece.
