1935 Hot Rod in Front of Mercury Charlie’s on McNeil Road

Written by Ken Altes

This old school car has a 50s Chrysler FirePower Hemi engine. The Hemi was the most powerful engine of its time, excelling at high rpm power, coveted by racers. This first generation of Hemis was build from 1951 to 1958.   Their only drawback was their weight, over 700lbs.1935 Hot Rod at Mercury Charlie's in Austin TX1935 Hot Rod at Mercury Charlie's in Austin TX Hemi1935 Hot Rod at Mercury Charlie's in Austin
