Tiger II - Blitzer AFX Chevelle

Still to this day, two of the most substantial pictures ever sent to me of the Tiger II / Blitzer. Lyle Greenberg sent me these that were taken at Albuquerque Dragway just after Jim and Andy Adcock had renamed the car to Blitzer. In just a few months this car would have a blown nitro burning 427 in it and be promptly banned by NHRA. That motor was then sold to future NHRA announcer Dave McClelland and put in a flat bottom drag boat to go on to set a record at Lake Havasu. Hot rod history!

Me trying to do my best Jim Adcock impression at Bowling Green last weekend for the NHRA Hot Rod Reunion. Two killer Chevys on nitro!

Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year!

Very cool 3 page feature of the TIGER II in Doug Boyce’s new book Drag Racings Quarter Mile Warriors Then & Now.
