Do you member where they ran it..??This is the car that started my race car addiction. I remember when my dad brought home the bare chassis. I was just a little fella and mom wouldn't let me go outside because it was too cold. So I watched my dad and uncle unload it from the kitchen window.
I remember being in elementary school and I would snatch dad's copy of circle track magazine to take to school and draw pictures of all the cars. A little later, I started reading those magazine's.View attachment 188882
Man, I still remember the first time they fired that thing up and how it rattled my chest. I swear I felt it in my bones and that burning race gas was a smell that just hung in the air. Of course I was too young then to really understand what he had. As I grew up, I understood. Wish I could have driven it at least once
He raced it at Anderson and Muncie.Do you member where they ran it..??
Where do you race at?
Yes, Only 12’s spins bad.Does it “RUN”
Nice. What class?
My Biscayne had the same problem. A set of Mickey Thompson street tires solved that issue nicely.Yes, Only 12’s spins bad.
I bet not. This year it’s getting new reared, street slicks and a set of Caltrac bars. That should solve itMy Biscayne had the same problem. A set of Mickey Thompson street tires solved that issue nicely.
They hooked.
But not a great rain tire
I had a Vega. Fun little car.

Me too. That's why my dream car is the 1963 Ford Galaxie 500.I have always loved the big body cars.
Is that a Pinto?
That will put you in another time bracket.....I bet not. This year it’s getting new reared, street slicks and a set of Caltrac bars. That should solve it
Nice pic. I love those carsThat will put you in another time bracket.....
Hotchkis control arms. I made a set of custom mounting points on the 12 bolt. The top ones are 1" taller to change the fulcrum point and it works. There is air under the left front and in the pic it is coming back down. Photo guy could never catch it on time. Not huge but it would pick it up 3"s or so when it would hook. Not bad for a 4000 pound street car.
