Harley Powered Dragster on Craiglist
By Brian Lohnes
BangShift.com
Now this is some fun stuff. This 88ci Harley-Davidson powered dragster, which looks all the world like a slightly puffed up Jr. dragster was built by Phil McGee who is a major supplier of parts to the Jr. dragster community.
The ad says that the car can compete in normal bracket classes and we’re thinking that it moves out pretty well with the 5-speed trans and grunt from the V-Twin. Hell, even today’s higher powered juniors, with their alky swilling, billet block engines make enough snot to scare the pants off the occasional parent who jumps in to make a fun lap.
The chassis is 17ft long and the whole car only weighs about 500lbs, so although one guy could roll it around easily enough, it won’t fit into the bed of your truck. Some custome fab work and creativity could result in a carrier system that may allow you to though.
We wish they included some elapsed times for this creation, because we’re thinking it screams. The seller also said that he will include all the parts to make the car capable of swallowing a 103ci engine for even more snot.
Click here to see the whole ad. This is neat!

that looks bad ass, the air scoop looks like a tank from West coast Choppers, just looks like the design of one of Jesse James’ tanks like on an El diablo II or Sturgis Special, i know that sounds bad ass to with the short exhaust

given all those engines are as crazy as a rotary…making noise in short runs was a smart idea. If you do like those engines…well you best start a gang and live to ride together…
