CHI-TOWN HUSTLER ON DISPLAY
Mon, 2007-10-29 11:24
Relive the glory days of funny cars in the Bar’s Products booth at
AAPEX, where the legendary Chi-Town Hustler will be on display.
The Chi-Town Hustler funny car was made famous on the Midwest match-racing circuit in the 1970s by Chicago-area racers John Farkonas, Austin Coil (now John Force’s crew chief) and Pat Minick. The car has been restored as a tribute to these three men and the spirit of the years when funny cars ruled the drag strips. It is built on the original Romeo Palamides chassis, with restored Mini-Charger and Mustang bodies. It carries a 426-cubic-inch Nitro-burning Hemi engine built with the outlines of yesterday, but the safety guidelines of today. The current Chi-Town Hustler is owned and driven by Troy Martin.

Martin’s Chi-Town Hustler uses Rislone Oil Stabilizer with Engine Treatment as its official oil additive. Rislone®, America’s best-selling engine treatment brand for more than 80 years, has sponsored the car since 1972. Bar’s Leaks®, the world’s most trusted stop-leak brand since 1947, is also a sponsor. Bar’s Products manufactures both the Bar’s Leaks and Rislone product lines.
Stop by Bar’s Products booth #4010 to see the Chi-Town Hustler during AAPEX show hours Tuesday, Oct. 30, through Thursday, Nov. 1. Meet Martin in the booth on Wednesday and Thursday. He will answer questions and sign autographs.
