The Legendary Country Girl Funny Car

John Knox (pictured) owns one of the most important vintage New England drag race cars, the Country Girl Funny Car that was driven by his wife Rodalyn. John has offered to loan the car to the Museum with a potential outright donation down the road. The car is virtually all original including the body, chassis and chrome. Anything not original to the car is period correct. The car was built in 1976. Rodalyn pushed the pedal hard enough that she became the first woman to with a circuit event. This is a working vintage car with an engine that absolutely thunders when fired up.
