Big Daddy, do you remember anything about Tony Nancy's 1964 Rear Engine rail called "the Wedge"? I have an old Hot Rod issue with this ride on the cover.

I believe he has this car in his museum. It is black with an enclosed top. There were several cars of this type during the early days of "funny car" when the cheap and dirty way to reduce the coefficient of drag was to merely chop off the top! Faster, but not the best in aesthetical satisfaction. Do be sure to take in this museum in central Florida--there are actually two buildings--one is drag-racing specific and another is his collection of historic street-restored cars207.178.98.103 01:54, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] This needs further editing

I'm not sure how to do it myself, but some of the information in the introduction that relates to the design of Swamp Rat XIV needs to be moved to the "Accident leads to innovation" subsection. This should be done with the addition of some references to sources, which are sorely lacking in this article. Respectfully, SamBlob 17:50, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
