Kenz and Leslie Streamliner

Denver racers Kenz and Leslie’s twin flathead 777 Streamliner on the
cover of Hot Rod Magazine after their car became the first hot rod
to break the 200 MPH speed limit in 1950.

Here is clip about the Streamliner at Bonneville Salt Flats from the
documentary, Gears, Grease and Guitars:

The music you hear faintly in the background of this clip is none other than
Willie Lewis, pictured in the previous post.
