Munster’s Drag-u-la Car Built 1964 – Restored 2012: Episode 2

Recently a customer contacted White River with a unique project: assist in the restoration of the Munster's Drag-u-la car by building the coffin that gives the dragster its unique look. While many people may stop and say “is this possible?”, White River says “we can do it” and have it completed in 4 weeks.

It’s all in the details. Say “hello” to the “Green Man”. He is located front and center as the hood ornament. Restoration work on any project precise quality. 

 

 

Custom radius hood and radius corners give the Dragula car nice features. The papyurus leaf is modified to fit the 4 corners of the Drag car.  


This coffin will house both the driver and the engine so special consideration was taken to follow precise specifications as required by the owner. White River works with many special projects at our custom millwork shop, from beamed ceilings, radius mouldings, large moulding build-ups to custom cars and boats.
