cool video. most of it is a Fremont drag strip. I use to go their before it closed in the early 90's.

 

[Budnicks]

yeah me too, it closed in 1982 IIRC

It was after 82 for sure I raced my truck in the mud bogs and won the tug a war with my 1984 Chevy. it was 1992 when it closed.

Thanks Budnicks, that was Cool! That got me pumped up. Now if I just had a crowerglide, a lenco, a 426, a few other odds and ends we could get our old funny out.....

sounds like a big list or expensive part of the list,
426 {hemi?} engine, Lenco/Jeffco trans {2-3-4 speed & reverser ?} & Crowerglide slipper clutch,
nothing that money doesn't/can't cure...LOL
have any photos you could share ?, what is your ?
I love the older F/C stuff, especially the 70's vintage cars, that I grew up with

 

[nitrojunkie]

Youre right on both counts. Its a big list and the most expensive too. Its the car on my avatar (hope thats the right term?) Its a 1978 Lincoln MK5 built by Joe Godwin and Jim Capps. The only one in existence as far as I know (at least by Godwin and Capps). Id have to dig out some photos to post if the Mopar guys on here dont shoot me, lol.
