A great shot from 1966 at Lions in Long Beach of the Green Pickle version of the Iacono dragster, as owned and driven by Tom Taros. At this stage a Taros modified 4-speed and Pontiac rear end back the Taros built small block Chevy. Taros ran a succession of small blocks for the next 25 years featuring his own fuel injection setup made from a tunnel ram and two flow-through 4-bbl. carbs. The wire wheels and magnesium rears were the last ones Iacono ran in 1960. Taros worked at Iacono's shop until 1972, which explains the lettering.
