    There are some beautiful cars listed in that poll ........... Diamond Jim Annin's fueler ............. the beautiful Warren Coburn & Miller "Rain for Rent" car ............. but I had to vote for the "California Charger" ........... still think all the "Chargers" were the most beautiful fuel dragsters ever raced
