Videoliner (dragster)

Videoliner is a streamliner slingshot dragster, built for "TV Tommy" Ivo.

[1] Designed by Steve Swaja, Videoliner used a Frank Huzar chassis and aluminum body built by Bob Sorrell.

[2] The exhaust pipes exited flush with the top of the body on either side, ahead of the cockpit.

[2] The car was built for "TV Tommy" Ivo, who planned to barnstorm the U.S. in 1965, but in test runs at Fremont, he found exhaust fumes and burnt rubber tended to enter the cockpit; worse still, the car had a tendency to spin when approaching the end of a pass.

[1] Chopping off some of the bodywork and "scalloping" the fenders was done in a futile effort to cure the "spooky handling".
