    I can't take the credit for producing this video... theres a gentleman that lives about an hour from here that produced a few "Gassers of the 60's" on you tube ,that i ran across in September, and just so happens , my Dad was one of his favorites... :) After he came and met my Dad in October at test and tune, we exchanged e-mails, and i sent him all drag racing pics that had been stored in a trunk for 40 yrs.... and with his 8mm footage & photos he took too, he put this video ... Priceless... to me .

    The coupe's been loooong gone.. dad sold it around 1970... I wanted desperately to find a coupe; but they must be made of gold~ and i got Starbucks taste and a Kool-Aid budget ;)

    That as so COOL to watch! Those were my days when the Altereds & the Gassers were king.

    The big boys only came to Fremont maybe once a year or so.

    But we had The Altereds, The gassers & The Super Stocks & we lined up to get in to see them!.

    That was way to cool, Thanks for sharing.

    The smile is still on my face ! That was one bad-ass screaming small block to lay down those numbers ! You must be very proud of your Dad and for all he has accomplished over the years of his drag racing . That gasser was perfect in so many ways ! Did the name of the car really come from the cartoon ? What ever happened to the race car ? If he doesn't have it anymore , has anyone in your family tried to track the gasser down to see if it's still around ? It would be nice to find it again and restore it ! You can tell your Dad that film made my day ! :D

    I did see the picture with the big smile on your face in your Pontiac ! Will this be another drag car or a hotrod for the street ?
    Again thanks for the great memories & flashback of the greatest racing time in history !
    Make sure you make a post of the build of your car !

  26. WOW! thats priceless. very cool to see. thank you.
     
  27. Kickass video. Those are some crazy wheelie bars. I was hoping too that the car would be resurected in the 2010 footage. Still way cool though.. Nice tribute!
