Monster Garage was a TV show on the Discovery Channel and was hosted by the famous fabricator Jesse James. The show aired from 2002-2006, and throughout those years many “monster machines” were created with various themes.
Offered here is a full custom-built dragster from the show Monster Garage. It was built using a 1966 Woody Gilmore front-engine slingshot dragster and a New York City hot dog cart. It has a GM ZZ 502-cid crate engine with a Lyons supercharger, MSD ignition and custom headers boasting nearly 1,300-hp. It has a B&M racing manual transmission, Mickey Thompson tires and weighs 1,800-lbs.
This is was built to be “The World’s Fastest Hot Dog Cart.” It was built and finished in 2003, and when raced on the TV show, it reached speeds over 130-mph. The dragster has made an appearance on the David Letterman Show, and is said to be fully operable right down to the hot dog cart.
