The motor run in the Coca Cola Wonder was a 468 CID blown and alcohol injected big block chevy, the esimated 1200 horsepower was routed through a 12 speed road ranger truck transmission to a massive 2.5 Ton rear end. The rear end has customed machined disc brakes and if you look at the pictures of the cab you will notice 2 brake pedals, these were used to steer the truck when the nose was in the air! I can not imagine the rush of that monster engine and steering that truck in a stadium full of people!
The truck still has the custom made bell housing that bolts to chevrolet engines. The body has a hydrolic lift and the truck opens up like a Funny car. With a little work this old girl could be rolling down the dirt again.
