Follow along with Project White Wagon, CompetitionPlus.com’s longrunning effort to build an old school Modified car to run in today’s modern Super Stock. Project White Wagon is a modern day version of the 1964 Chevy II wagon driven by Gene Fulton in the 1970s and captured three world championships. The starting point of a basket case wagon, hidden in a junkyard for over three decades, makes this project a continual challenge.

The latest edition of the exclusive CompetitionPlus.tv Project White Wagon series covers the creation of the new hood and addition of a Pro Stock style scoop from K&N Filters. Carbon Fiber Manufacturing’s Kenny Farrell talks about the lightweight hood and scoop which together weigh less than ten pounds.
This is Part 3 of the video series, and Part 17 of the overall series.
This episode features the construction on the other side of the tailgate including the Aeromotive fuel cell with fuel pump and the Lithium Pros battery. Gene Fulton, in this edition of the Fulton Flashback, talks about the unique battery box in the original car.
