I actually think that's kind of cool.

"CONVERTED TO A STREET GASSER IN 1970."

Period correct. I used to see things like that on the streets.
It's far from practical but very cool to see again.

Fun to look at, I like it. I would however like to clarify that I'm not sure that I could look at it every day.

 

[67Monaco]

This is something I'd like to see at Carlisle.

Great thought Bob

Those rear leaf springs are stretched like a bungee cord!! I don't think gassers had 4wd truck lift kits......

What does "gasser" mean anyways? Looks like a 4 wheel drive RR to me, without 4 wheel drive.

Gasser's a cut up straight axle front ends with slicks on the rear. This car doesn't look right........

I would think cars with straight axles makes for a really rough ride.

Don't matter much in the 1320...

front ends were up in the air for weight transfer and weight reduction .. and to handle the landing when they came down

rear's were not supposed to be in the air

like the second pic 68plymouth383 posted

I keep forgetting that 3/4's of the members here don't know the background of REAL Gassers in Hot Rodding history.
And 98% of the "gassers" you see being built now are as incorrect as sidepipes on a T-bird 4 door.
Shame.........
