Ezra Boggs Funny Car

Ezra Boggs raced funny cars from 1969 to 1985, from coast to coast. Boggs bought the infamous Moby Dick '75 Corvette from Minnesota nightclub owner Steve Gold. The Moby Dick, when driven by Jerry Boldenow, was famous for helping breaking the so-called "Corvette Curse" by running a 6.15 at 230 at Indy in '76 and was runner-up in an IHRA race that year.  Driving the Moby Dick, Boggs made his claim to fame in drag racing history. He raced the car from late 1977 to 1985. He raced the car in all three sanctioning bodies but was most famous for match racing the beautiful Corvette.


The model

Jay built this beautiful funny car Corvette model from various sources.  It's a bash between Revell, Polar Lights, and probably a few MPC parts, plus details.  The body is resin, The Good Stuff, no longer in business.
