Hemi Under Glass 1966 Barracuda Diecast 1:18 Highway 61 Collectibles

Introducing the 1:18 scale Hemi Under Glass 1966 Barracuda made by Highway 61 Collectibles. The Hurst Corporation sponsored a number of exhibition racers during the 60's and none of them were more famous than the”Hemi Under Glass” wheelstander. Built and driven by Bob Riggle, this was a Plymouth® Barracuda like none other. The 1500 horsepower 426 Hemi engine was mounted in the rear of the car to create the feather light front end and rear weight distribution needed to do endless “wheelies” down the strip. The 727 Torqueflight transmission was run into a marine Casale V drive, then back to the reversed rear end which had been flipped over so the ring and pinion gears ran forward. A plexiglass panel was mounted into the firewall below the dash, allowing Bob to see the track ahead while riding an eight-foot wheelstand. And now you can own the diecast version of this fantastic car. Go in for a closer look to fully appreciate the effort which went into the creation of these highly detailed collectible vehicles. In fact, the only thing lacking in our vehicles is the new car smell. Toy safety, manufacturers minimum age - 8 years.
