Well maybe 10-15-20 years ago would of been a bit easier and cheaper! Seeing as how the guys in Titusville took all the original goodies off and put them on a wagon, then sold the shell to the guy in Meadville. Everything has to be collected. LOL
Is it just me, or does it look strange for a Mopar of this vintage to be launching with the rear of the car squatting so low to the ground? The Lau Raider car a few posts down is more like what I'd expect to see. The rear of the car up on its haunches and the slicks mashed into the track.

My brother built this car with a friend to race at Marion and Sioux city. They raced from 67 to 72. Barry passed away 2/14/17 r.i.p. Big brother...
That would be Paris,Texas. The Stephens family still owns the track there and also Thunder Valley in Noble Oklahoma.
Is this the first fake patina car on record? How could it look so funky already? Can't be A/SA with that scoop. either.
