At 0:59 It's Tom "Mongoose" McKuen driving the Southern California Plymouth Dealer's Association "Hemi Cuda" with a blown & injected 426 "Elephant" motor in the back seat. The car operated with direct-drive only (no trans) with McKuen protected from an engine explosion by a solid metal shield (clearly seen, behind the Goose, beginning @ 0:59). McKuen flipped the original Hemi Cuda, at Lions, in '64 when "negative air pressure" got under the front end. A 2nd car was built & he drove into '65.

0:16 was Mike Sorokin and the Surfers car ~ one of the strongest left coast cars ever to fire up. I was @ OCIR at the end of th 1967 when Mike was killed driving Tony Waters' top fuel car. At about 1:15 you see the push start days @ Lions before they installed the rollers behind the line. I lived @ Lions from '64 until I was drafted in '69.

Your correct. Did you see John Mulligan with them toward the end of the DVD Movie in the garage wrenching on the motor?
