1932 Ford Bonneville Land Speed Racer — 191 MPH — Raced at 2026 Speed Week
This is the real deal.
Purpose-built 1932 Ford land speed race car, constructed from scratch by its owner and campaigned at the Bonneville Salt Flats for four years, including Speed Week in August 2026.
The owner reports a best speed of 191 MPH.
Power comes from a 1969 Chrysler 340 block stroked to 372 cubic inches, featuring a Moldex crankshaft, Carrillo rods and Chrysler W9 cylinder heads. Output is stated by the owner at 600+ horsepower, backed by a Chrysler 4-speed manual transmission.
This isn’t a street rod made to look like a Bonneville racer. It was built for land-speed competition and was on the salt in August 2026.
