John Healy and driver Bill Lawton with their Tasca Ford-sponsored 1966 Mustang A/FX Funny Car at the NHRA Pomona Winternationals in February1966. Ford’s drag racing big hitters like Bill Lawton received these fiberglass wonders, with an additional 16-inches added ahead of the windshield, with a 15-inch engine setback for the 427 SOHC Cammer/C-6 automatic combo. There were six crafted in all from out of the Holman-Moody shop in Long Beach, California. Because there was no Funny Car class, NHRA slotted them into the C/Fuel class where they completely dominated. These would be the last factory-sponsored drag racing entries until the Cobra Jet Mustangs debuted in 1968.
