Don Parscale's "Swiss Cheese" B/Gasser


I received a series of photos in my email from Don Parscale.  Don ran a nice little B/Gas Anglia a number of years ago and wanted to share the photos with us.  Thank you Don.

On it's way to the light, Don's Anglia looks like it was a nice piece.
Ready to go home until next weekend.
If you've ever wondered what "quarter-elliptic" springs look like, take a gander.
From the back.
A nicely drilled axle!

Nice sanitary trunk, with the battery where it belongs.

The business end.  A steel head 292" SBC.  A real staple of the gas class racers.
Couple of shots of the car just hangin' round the house.  When's the weekend gonna be here?!
