Scream machine: The Munsters' Dragula race car up for auction
Fox News
A custom Dragula race car built for "The Munsters" will be crossing the block at the Mecum Auctions event in Kissimmee, Fla., next January. The coffin-based car was designed by George Barris.
Dragula is a 1964 drag car built with a body made from a fiberglass coffin and powered by a 289/350 hp Ford V8.
The vehicle was designed for an episode of the show titled "Hot Rod Herman" that saw Eddie Munster coax his father into taking on his friend's father in a winner take all race, only to lose and have to hand over the keys to the family's iconic Munster Koach.
Grandpa Munster then comes to the rescue by building Dragula and heading to the drag strip for a rematch, where he tucks under its plexiglass cockpit and (spoiler alert!) wins the race, which comes to a comical end.
