Belly Tank. Bill Burke
Aquarelle sur papier 300 gr A4 avec encadrement alu noir- Acuarela A3 300 gr. con marco aluminio negro. (90,-€) jrG
Después de la II Guerra Mundial, los soldados norteamericanos que regresaron a casa tenían ganas de diversión. Bill Burke se dio cuenta de que en los depósitos de carburante suplementarios de los bombarderos cabía un V8.
Así nacieron los Belly Tank, los primeros llevaron un V6 sobre un chasis de Ford T, usando los depósitos de los Mustang P51 de 168 galones, para después utilizar los más grandes de P38 Lightning de 315 galones y donde cabían muy bien los grandes V8. Pasar de 200km/h en las jornadas de Bonneville era sencillo.
Siguen compitiendo, ahora con la misma forma pero en aluminio o fibras composites.

Today in the Department of Before They Were Star Trek Stars, William Shatner guest stars in "Who Killed Carrie Cornell," episode 1 of the third season of Burke's Law (original air date February 14, 1964).
In this police procedural, the eponymous Carrie Cornell is a deceased model who posed for both cheesecake magazines and bohemian artists. Shatner plays one of the latter, who is interviewed by the police. The murderer, however, turns out to be his roommate, a toxic gym bro who was disgusted by Carrie's habit of dating men who were less perfect physical specimens than himself. Seriously, this guy could have been Andrew Tate's Grandpa or something.
Other Trek connections:
The killer of the week, who goes by the name of Big Bwana Smith, is played by Trek legend Michael Ansara, who brought the great Klingon warrior Kang to life in The Original Series, Deep Space Nine, and Voyager.
The magazine publisher's butler is played by prolific actor/stunt performer Bill Catching. Catching did stunt work on several episodes of Star Trek, mostly doubling for Leonard Nimoy. While doubling for Robert Brown in the episode "The Alternative Factor," he also played the anti-matter version of Lazarus.
Music for Burke's Law is composed by Joseph Mullendore, who also composed and conducted music for the Star Trek episode "The Conscience of the King."
