Wow Keith what a wonderful experience you had growing up. Your dad lived a breathed muscle cars and racing, and passed it on to you. I have to laugh because my father used to get angry at me for always working on my cars. He felt a car is only for transportation, and getting from point A to B. I'd be out in the garage pulling engine or restoring this or that and he would walk by and shake is head. I think the more it irritated him the more I got into cars LOL. Although I was already into muscle cars, my mentor was Bill Scott who the chief mechanic on the Grandsport corvette/ Penske race team, who I met by chance at our local NAPA retailer. Keith your father left and amazing legacy and very much appreciate you sharing it with us. ![]()

While I'm not the original owner I have talked to the guy who was. He and his father were actually on their way to look at Corvette's in Houston when they decided to stop at River / Oaks Chrysler / Plymouth. On the showroom floor were both a Hemi & an A12 Road Runner's optioned alike - A4 silver exterior / pewter & black interior / black vinyl top / console auto. I asked why, if his father was purchasing it for him, would he have chosen the A12 over the Hemi? Reason - the lift-off hood made it look more bad ass! They never did make it to look at Corvette's at all.....
