Tom McEwens 1957 Chevy Funny Car - Tom “The Mongoose” McEwen had a good run in the mid-’80s with his Coors sponsored Corvette Funny Car. But as the recession set in during the late ‘80s, Coors decided to spend its advertising money on something besides drag racing, thus leaving the Mongoose without a sponsor. Ever the showman, McEwen decided to have a ‘57 Chevy styled body made for his funny car chassis and took his new show on the road.

The end result was simply stunning! The bright red funny car had beautiful airbrush rendered bumpers, headlights, and grill by Kenny Youngblood. McEwen promoted the car as “The World’s Fastest 1957 Chevy” and ran exhibitions at tracks all over the country.

Unfortunately, the Mongoose was never able to land a major sponsor for the car. This rendition of the car shows how it “could” have looked had McEwen chosen to have his classic “Mongoose” cartoon character painted on the car.

In case you might be wondering how quick and fast McEwen’s ‘57 Chevy was, his best run on the car was 4.72 seconds with a top speed of 265 mph.!

Tom McEwen's Hot Wheels Duster Funny Car - Tom McEwen was the other half of the “Snake vs the Mongoose” team. In the animal world, the only predator that the cobra has is a mongoose. According to McEwen, Prudhomme was always faster on the line, that’s why he was call “the Snake.” The “Mongoose” thing was more of a marketing bit to attract match race booking.

“SUNDAY! SUNDAY! SUNDAY! SEE TOM “THE MONGOOSE” MCEWEN TAKE ON DON ”THE SNAKE” PRUDHOMME IN A BEST OF 3 ALL-OUT MATCH RACE! WILL IT BE “THE SNAKE” OR “THE MONGOOSE” IN VICTORY LANE??? BE THERE!!!

Then they would go into a town, they’d sometimes go to the top AM radio stations for quickie interviews with McEwen doing all the boosting. “SNAKE I’M TAKING YOU DOWN 3 OUT OF 3 SATURDAY NIGHT MAN, WHAD’YA GONNA DO ABOUT IT?” Prudhomme, the quiet guy, would just quietly say, “Sure Tom, sure.”

The Hot Wheels deal with Mattel Toys made McEwen and Prudhomme legends in the minds and hearts of boys and toy collectors all over the country.

Dyno Dn Nicholson's ELIMINATOR Cougar Funny Car - After the unfortunate crash of the ‘67 Comet “Eliminator,” “Dyno Don” Nicholson was back in action with a new car using a ‘68 Mercury Cougar fiberglass body. Once again, Nicholson was the man to beat. The biggest difference for the ‘68 car was that Don went from an injected SOHC 427 Ford to a blown and injected 427 SOHC Ford. Thanks to the Pete Robinson blower, Dyno’s Cougar ran consistent 7.3s @ 190 mph!

Carrying on with his match racing ways, the “Eliminator” Cougar just about put everyone on the trailer in ‘68. The Cougar ended in a fiery crash and that was the end of Don’s nitro-burning drag cars. The following year he was into Pro Stock.

Dyno Don Nicholson's ELIMINATOR Mercury Funny Car - When "Dyno Don" Nicholson showed up with this one-piece, flip-top fiberglass car in 1967, everyone was stunned! Don's factory supported, Mercury bodied, Ford powered funny car trumped everyone.

The story goes that when Ronnie Sox first saw Nicholson’s new rig, he asked Don, "Did you know this car was going to look like this before you got it?" Within months, nearly everyone in the funny car ranks had switched to a one-piece fiberglass body over a tube frame chassis setup. This was the beginning of the end of the A/FX era cars.

Don Prudhomme's Hot Wheels 'Cuda - Thanks to Don Prudhomme's unique association with Mattel Toys, his "Hot Wheels" funny cars were arguably his most well known and remembered race cars.

The story goes that Don's friend Tom McEwen knew someone at Mattel Toys who worked in the R&D department. The Tom and Don pitched an idea for a sponsorship that would be tied in with Mattel's Hot Wheels die-cars toys. A deal was struck, and the rest is drag racing history.

McEwen and Prudhomme played their "Snake" and "Mongoose" nicknames off of each other and would often do radio interviews before match races to stoke the fans for Wednesday or Saturday night racing. It worked for years until Mattel moved on to other toy themes.

Ramchargers 1970 Dodge Challenger Funny Car - By 1970, the Ramchargers team was a long-standing, solid Funny Car team. The Challenger and ‘Cuda had all-new body designs for 1970, so most of the Mopar Funny Car teams switched to the ‘Cuda or a Challenger. What was so amazing about the Ramcharger car for 1970 was how close to “stock” the body was. It obviously wasn’t completely stock, but its proportions were very close to stock.

Leroy Goldstein drove the Ramchargers Challenger for 2 seasons and regularly ran the car in the 7.0-second range. Leroy was credited as the first six-second Funny Car in the summer of 1970.

Barry Setzer's 1971 Vega Funny Car - In 1971 when Barry Setzer, the double knit fabric king from North Carolina, decided to get into drag racing, it was first class all the way. His race cars were "state of the art," beautiful, and spotless. For a time, Setzer ran a Vega funny car, a Vega pro stocker, and a stunning top fueler. After three weeks in the funny car biz, Kelly Brown drove the Setzer funny car to become the fastest funny car in the land with a 227.27 mph blast! .- KST
