This is a factory built dragster by Plymouth in 1963.  I have raced this car at various drag strips in Ohio and have always received comments about its originality.  Friends would tell me you should take this to car shows!  When I retired from drag racing I decided to give my car a new face lift. I wanted to be able to drive it on the street. So I made it street legal - barely - and gave it a name I remember from my youth.  I dedicated that name to a beloved family member who had died too early in life and was a car collector like myself "Vulture II" in memory of John Kastor.

Now I take my show/race car to all the weekend car shows and I have won 1st. place best of show many times.  I enjoy meeting all the other car owners and it reminds me of my youth and brightens my day.

If you love cars and want to see beauty from the past go to a car show near you.
