I remember it well but never got to see it do a run, that's some great Mopar history.
Kinda feels good to have a Mopar with a Hurst shifter in it after watching that.
I liked the chair they gave him, that was kick ***.

 

[Richard Cranium]

That was GREAT!!!!

Was up at Mr. Norm's last winter picking up my Challenger and Tim has one of the Hemi Under Glass cars there. '68 if I recall. He said they start it occasionally, but that's about it. Good to see it up close and know it's in good hands. Thanks for the post eric.

I saw the first one of those run in the spring of 1966 in Indiana before leaving for the Marines. i have seen most of the other wheel standers at one drag strip or another, mostly in Atlanta (I have no idea why they call that area Atlanta when it is so far away from Atlanta). Great video, thanks.
