CPTV VIDEO SERIES: THE RETURN OF GENE FULTON PT. 3

dsb 8202 20140427 1034170560Gene Fulton is a five-time world champion and accomplished engine builder. The popular drag racing icon from Spartanburg, SC, hasn't dumped the clutch in a race car since 1986.

Fulton, the only sportsman racer to be enshrined in the Legends of Thunder Valley, became infatuated with the South East Gassers, a group of the volatile gassers running period correct cars from 1967. Over a BBQ lunch, Fulton threw his hat in the ring and began the process of building a Gasser to run on the series formed by one of his long time friends Quain Stott.

This series is a hybrid between documentary and a reality show, and promises to entertain.

In this episode of Gene Fulton Returns, our story picks up with the story of Rudy Knight, longtime Fulton friend who makes a long journey to Pennsylvania to pick up the last piece of the puzzle in finishing the Bad Attitude '41 Willys. With the car finished, the focus then turns toward the legality of the car with the spirit of the rules in mind.
