Re: FactoryLightweightsDetroitsDragRacngSpclsofthe60s
I gotta agree about drag racing's finest hour. I ordered my copy last week from Amazon and am anxiously awaiting it. I have always thought that 1963 was the peak of the musclecar era. Aluminum front ends, trunk mounted batteries, heater deletes, and factory cross or tunnel rams. I mean c'mon, the Max Wedge cars had factory dumps on the exhaust system. An era gone forever but forever missed.

Re: FactoryLightweightsDetroitsDragRacngSpclsofthe60s
I think with some degree of certainty that the '64 Hemi will be discussed. Can you say ! "pivotal year"
    Looks like something for everyone!
