Hazy memory: Motor Trend wrote up the 1962 413 wedge drag car, and I want to say it came with a driveshaft hoop. But hazy, like I say. *NM*
In Response To:
Driveshaft hoops were a later safety measure, probably added by the late '70s, Not sure about the other items. *NM*

Just finished the Moebius 65 Chevy 2 Gasser, nice kit tho' surprised no driveshaft hoop,hood pins or cabin fire extinguisher & the wheeler bars needed some cross bracing....lol...yeh I'm being pedantic now, seriously tho' an enjoyable build...thank you Moebius. *NM*

Many racers used them. But you did not HAVE TO until the rules were made. *NM*
Yeh,so I've added a driveshaft hoop, hood pins & crossbraced the wheelie bars as they were very fragile,couldn't find a decent looking extinguisher in the parts pile,added drilled exhaust turnouts from the chromed sprue corners & painted Tamiya light Red rattle can colour. *NM*
