Let's see your CockPits

[Mike Gaines]

I will show mine. This is a pix of my cockpit in the 1965 Altered wheelbase Plymouth Belvedere. 15" rear altered wheelbase and 10" front altered with tube axle. 26" Engine setback. I did all the work in the backroom of my speed shop in winter of 1966.

Hemi-itis ... Looks like you and I had the SAME IDEA on fabbing a pushbutton shifter....only about 50 years apart...so cool....love it.

Mike, you were very fortunate to be in the right place,in the right era to do what you have done.I really dig that AWB car and that you raced the **** out of it.I was never able to support the racing addiction and be able to go every week to race.
But I finally have the car I always wanted,performing the way I always wanted.It has double duty as street bruiser and lay down some respectable ETs.This coming season will be mid 9's at over 140,change a pulley,,,add some octane and go mid 8s!

Those "cab overs" are a hoot to drive! I once owned a '65 ford econoline van. Sitting on top of the front wheel when driving or parking it, sure is different!
