Yellow Fang (dragster)

Yellow Fang is a streamliner slingshot dragster.
Designed by Steve Swaja and built by Jim Davis in 1963, the car had a wheelbase. The aluminum body, hammered by Tom Hanna for US$5000, had a very pointed nose, canopied cockpit, and V-shaped "claw" tail, and was painted Diamond T yellow with red lettering. The straight front axle had bicycle wheels and wing-like fairings. The engine, a blown Chrysler hemi prepared by Bill Demerest, was exposed, as were the wheels.
Early trial passes revealed problems with the cockpit canopy, and when Schreiber took over the driving chores, it was removed. He raced in Australia and the U.S. on an exhibition tour during 1967 and 1968.
The car now resides in the Don Garlits Museum of Drag Racing in Ocala, Florida.
