Re: Vintage Drag Pics

When or what year are the pictures taken.

Re: Vintage Drag Pics

Almost all of the ones I've been posting are 68-71.

Re: Vintage Drag Pics

Hi 69 L78Post.

Is this your car? It's a 69L78Post from Canada, just guessing.

I am trying to figure out who is who, (not using names is kind of confusing)

Ryan,

The owner saw this post and called me....saying he wishes to be private. I must respect his wishes.

Re: Vintage Drag Pics

Great pics , keep um coming...

Re: Vintage Drag Pics

Here's a 72 RR, must be an early car to have an air grabber? Also, a Fiat, but I posted it here because of the Hemi, and the name.

First '72 Roadrunner I've <span style="font-style: italic">ever</span> seen with an Air Grabber hood. You most likely are correct (i.e., early car).

Re: Vintage Drag Pics

Great shots Peter, I've always liked the Speedwin Automotive Dart! I was chatting online with the brother of the guy that owned the 72 RR with the Air Grabber. It was a 400 Auto, Dark Green Metallic with gold strobe. It was destroyed in a crash in 76 or 77.

The "Riddler" looks to be a 72 with an Air Grabber...

Re: Vintage Drag Pics

440+6 GTX. Looks like a black car. ( I wonder why he doesn't have the Air Grabber up?)

Thanks, but the real thanks goes to whoever took the photos. Too bad about the Roadrunner.

Doesn't look like it has one. It <span style="font-style: italic">should</span> if it's an original 440+6 car.

Could be the non-air grabber hood. Like the LS6's there were two versions of the domed hood - with or without the functional air grabber. The hemi had the trapdoor, standard. You had to pay extra for the trap door on the other models.
