Cracker Box 1958 - class win -

Cracker Box "Hot Ice" 1958


Carl Maginn's Crackerbox was national champ two years
in a row in competition with a Dodge V-8. For drags,
Carl switched to an injected Chrysler and shares top
boat drag time with Randy Ramos at 97.71 mph. Three
shots above show boat starting off, accelerating, then
flat out. Boat holds 13.10 e.t.

Old Cracker Box boat

I can't remember where I saw this picture, but it sure has some
nice lines to it. Looks really nice in white too with the wood dash.
Appears to be undergoing a restoration of some sort..
I would say this is probably a 50's Cracker. I sure would like
to see more pictures of this one.
-- Send pics my ways if you know the boat - Thank you

Someone sent a couple of pictures to me so here they are. I don't
know if this is an old cracker or not. Either way, it's a beautiful old
piece that could just be a gentlemans racer. A beauty!!
