Amazing Internet Find !!!!
 

I was looking thru a old Drag Racing thread on another site and was scrolling thru the pictures when this picture popped up..........You got to be kidding me.....It is a picture from 1967 with my L-79 Nova on a borrowed trailer on our way out to the Grove......That's my friend Mario and his Cadillac pulling the trailer......LOL......Thinking back to those times........I couldn't afford to pay the rent but I was at the track every weekend.......After a year of that non-sense she put her foot down and said that was it.....and the car Hobby came to a screeching halt for 25 years.......LOL.....Anyhow.....I had E&R go thru the engine back then ........bored .030......Sig Erson cam and a Edelbrock cross ram manifold.......ran a best of 11.82 in 67.........After she pulled funding.......I sold the engine and put a 396-360h.p. engine and turbo 400 in the car.......spent the Winter of 67-68 in my dad's garage doing the install and building my own headers.......LOL.....Tubing, torch and coathangers.......LOL......Finished the car and drove it in the summer of 68........Then the one night I didn't put the car in the garage and it was sideswiped by a Drunk........Had it fixed but it was fixed to very good standards and I ended up selling it to a guy on the south side of Chicago and never saw it again

That's the way it was... Very common to see cars towing loaded trailers. Monster big blocks and torque. Big heavy cars=towing stability.

Great photo!

Same thing happened to me yesterday while I was in Michigan and this came to my attention from a FB page. Never before seen photo of our Dart running at North Star Drag Strip the morning we changed motors, hence the front clip not getting back on the car in time. Love the internet. The second close up photo was taken likely the same weekend by the owner of the car.
