Imagine how much better the world would have been with modern cameras and recorders back in the '60s.

I like the 1969 Shelby on the return road.

They just got the cuda and that was there first time to the track. They still have the car. Here is a picture from 1972 in street racing trim and a present pic of it setting in a garage.

Does it still have its original running gear?

Does it still have its original running gear?

I don't know. I will ask and see if I get a response. I saw it on the book of faces and thought some of yall would like it.

Neat car.
Wonder if they kept the shaker setup.
Standard on a Hemi Cuda but rare on a Hemi Challenger.

Remember being in an auto parts store picking up a pair of 426 valve cover gaskets years ago.
Counter person asked why I needed 2 oil pan gaskets!!!

If it is an "R" code car it is not a huge deal if it does not.

I liked the 66 Chevelle SS at 048.

Does it still have its original running gear?

Owner replied and said yes but modifications are 12 to 1 pistons, magnesium crossram, racer brown stx22 cam and 4.56 gears.

Now that is awesome that they still have it and with the original engine. That is so cool.

sign of a good driver

The automatic transmission probably helped the original drivetrain survive.

that car rocks! thanks for posting, it really took off in those videos. My friend has a 70 hemi cuda auto (Column shift, bench seat) and he had it since new, it is a scary ride (like this yellow car).
