The original Drag'n Wag'n was a 1963 Dodge built by Arlen Vanke for Dave Duell back in the mid-1960s, and Dave raced it successfully in NHRA until the mid-70s, when he then focused on his career and the Chrysler / Plymouth dealership in Evansville, IN that he'd bought.
Drag'n Wag'n Tribute
In the late 1980s Dave was bitten by the racing bug again, and searched for an appropriate car to make into a tribute to the original Drag'n Wag'n.

Epilogue
Dave died in December 2005, and his son Doug Duell has raced the car to many NSS Championships ever since.
