Bob.....it kind of looks like a post car with the wing/vent. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img] LOL <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: markjohnson</div><div class="ubbcode-body">That is a really neat picture of that White '68 Chevelle poppin' that wheelie. 'Ya know, that's really not that hard to do with a decently powered Chevelle. At the same time I was racing a low 10-second Malibu my lil' brother had a 13-second '72 Chevelle with an extremely mild 454, Vega Convertor (remember those?), hand-me-down wore-out Hoosier tires and NO Front Shocks (that's the key). Well, my car would stay on the ground but his Chevelle would yank the front tires 12-14 inches easily on any kinda pavement. He practically became a local legend because of this and when he would choose off faster cars to race and normally lose, the crowd of post-race spectators would flock to his car instead of the winner! I once followed him a couple of miles through town and watched him wheelie from every single stoplight just driving the car normal. It was actually quite hard NOT to do it. </div></div> I believe it Mark, I'm pretty close to getting the front off the ground with bias ply street tires. If I would have had taken a little more air out of the tires and launched it a little harder........????? Kurt ![]()

Kurt, you have the 'beware of dog' challenge now.
all you need is a wisconsin school parking lot, and I am sure it will be easy to get an old tractor in the background for the full effect. |

<span style="font-style: italic"><span style="font-weight: bold">Beware of Dog Challenge</span></span>. I like the sound of that! It's got a ring to it.
