David McFarlan Las Vegas, Nevada 1960 Ghia


This bad-ass '60 Ghia is owned by David McFarlan, who hails from Sin City - Las Vegas, Nevada. If there are any doubts that nitrous oxide makes incredible power, how do 12-second passes with a 1679 cc engine sound? Yep, this car has a run a best (as of this writing) of 12.57 @ 108 MPH! Think that's an achievement? It gets better - it was run on radials!

Future plans call for a full aluminum interior, Lexan windows, a rollcage, and race seats, followed by a "big motor with even more juice," where David predicts 10-second ETs.


1679 cc: DPR crank and rods; everything else Berg. Carbs are Weber 44 IDFs; Performance Technology heads, and a 10,000 rpm nitrous plate system.


Type 1, built by Jeff Newcomb: stock first and second gears, 1.48 3rd, and a 1.08 4th gear. Weddle side covers, and SAW axles
