Description: This Halibrand 50th Anniversary Mickey Thomson Challenger Commemorative Clock is a must-have addition for any hot rod enthusiast. It is cast out of magnesium. Thes commemorative clocks were produced by Halibrand in the early 1990’s to celebrate their 50th anniversary in business and also to recognize the achievements of Mickey Thompson who used specially built Halibrand magnesium wheels on his Challenger 1 Bonneville Streamliner that he built to race on the Bonneville salt flats in 1959-1962. Powered by 4 supercharged Pontiac engines, Challenger 1 exceeded 400 miles per hour in a one way pass in 1960, which exceeded John Cobb’s existing land speed record of 394 miles per hour. However, Mickey Thompson was not able to back up the speed with a second pass due to mechanical problems. Challenger 1 pioneered a number of innovations in the world of land speed record vehicles. Notable were the advances in tire development by Goodyear and wheel construction by Halibrand. This commemorative clock measures 24” in diameter and 3.5” thick. This commemorative clock was a limited run with only 100 being made. The intricate design and attention to detail make it a unique piece that will be sure to impress. Its vintage look and feel give it a classic touch that will fit perfectly in any garage or man cave. Crafted by the iconic Halibrand brand, this clock is a true testament to American ingenuity and craftsmanship. The manufacturer part number 66/100 and country of origin, United States, are proof of the quality that went into its production. Whether you’re a collector or just looking for a statement piece, this clock will not disappoint.
