Hauling your dragster to the drags was much simpler in the 1960s. Anywhere in the west that this blown-Chevy shorty was hand-lifted (!) from its self-contained hauler, the car was a threat to become Top Gas Eliminator. Originally flathead-powered, the Reno, Nevada-based Shoehorn demonstrated the advantages of mid-engine placement for a full decade before Don Garlits famously followed suit.
