My Coffee Table

[Nick Name]

Tire and wheel from the McGee Bros quad cam top fuel car.

I told Chris and Phil I was looking for one to make a coffee table with and they gave me this.

Just spent a little time cleaning it this morning, so I too a few shots.

Nice, that would be a great addition to the man cave!

 

[stitcherbob]

nice....now how about some end tables made with McGee 4 cam heads?

If you're married you get 2 stamps on your man card!

 

[Nick Name]

Married. My wife had the top made.

Think that gives you BINGO on the man card

 

[Rajunz]

Love it, plus it has great history involved.

what do you get if she lets it in the living room?

 

[Dave]

Be careful. They start stinking when the tire starts to break down. I know this from experience.

 

[Nick Name]

Dave; I have had this for about 12 years. no smell.

As for taking it home, no need. My wife designed our building and I got an incredible office. She said I deserved it. I have all my cool stuff there. Including this;

Helmets from the late Elmer Trett and Larry "Spiderman" McBride.

My wife is really into this stuff. But then what do you expect from a lady who's daily driver is a Caddy CTS-V

Told my wife about this thread yesterday. She asked "what's a man card"!

Thats cool, First time I saw a drag racing tire table was a Ronnie Sox's house in Burlington,NC back in 1973. Firestone Drag 500 on a Keystone wheel but with a small stand to elevate it.

I think she's a "KEEPER"

Who was the last driver of the McGee car?

 

[Nick Name]

Dave Grubnic was working for the McGees and driving the car when I got the wheel. Dave used to grind my cams when he worked there.

Anybody know what the quickest pass that car made?

 

[Nick Name]

No, but when Dale Armstrong got one of those motors, everyone panicked. That was the beginning of the end for them.

Well if that tire came off that car. Then the quickest pass it made on three wheels was most likely very slow and limping
