"Hot Rod" Magazine for January 1966

01

Artifact Overview

Bob and Bill Summers posed with their record-breaking wheel-driven car for Hot Rod's January 1966 issue. It took clever engineering to pack four massive Chrysler engines and the machinery to drive all four wheels into its long, slim shape. Many purists feel that the faster jet- and rocket-powered machines, like those pictured on the right, are not real cars.
