Here's a couple of Norman Blake shots of 70s Funny Car action at its best.

This is Larry Fullerton's "Trojan Horse" Mustang II from Englishtown at one of the track's popular Wednesday night Funny Car shows. This was the purple and silver "glitter" car that really looked good under the lights and was the last car Larry campaigned before he was killed as a passenger in a traffic accident in 1981.

Tom Anderson's "Speed Racer" was one of the baddest cars out there for a while in the late 70s. Mike Kase built this swoopy Vega and Anderson, who later went on to wrench Al Hoffman's car during his killer years, vacated the seat and a variety of drivers drove it including AA/Dale Armstrong.
