CougarTim ◊ 2019-10-08 05:07	This appears to be "The Myth": Zitat Ed Middlebrook built "THE MYTH", an all steel stock-trimmed BB/GS Austin two door sedan, in 1971. The engine was a 365" Chrysler with a B&M Clutch-Flite transmission. Jamie Sarte of Los Angeles built the chassis from 1-3/4 inch OD tubing. The rear end was an 8-3/4 inch 1973 Mopar unit housing 5.14 gears. Custom axles from Summers Brothers were employed. Jamie Sarte built the 32-inch traction bars. Koni shocks were used front and rear. Jones Auto Body in North Hollywood chopped the top four inches. The two-tone paint (Purple and Silver) was done by Bill Carter. "THE MYTH" weighted 2750 pounds. In 1972 it ran 145 MPH with an ET of 9.58 seconds. It was then run in CC/A to a best of 162 MPH with an ET of 8.57 seconds. Ed Middlebrook raced "THE MYTH" from 1972 to 1979. http://www.austinworks.com/gas-west.html
