GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS:

  This car has been designed to be the quickest, lightest, and safest AA/supercharged (AA/Gasser) '33-'34 Willys ever built. Best ET = 6.87 @ 198.50. The car is stable, launches hard (1.04 60 ft.), goes straight. It incorporates engineering features from 35 years of gasser racing experience that make it functional, fun to drive, and easy to work on. Absolutely the best components available with no expenses spared.

 

 

Note about Mel Bryson, the owner, drivver, and designer: Raced 33 Willys A/Gs in the '60's. Returned to Gasser racing in the early '90's. First legal nostalgia AA/Gasser to go 170, 180, & 190 mph. Set both ET & MPH records for NHRA and VRA (Goodguys) Nostalgia racing at various times during the last decade.
