Could that be a Hemi Dart racing the copo in one of them pic's ?? Looks like it has the cut out wheel wells. I'm not a dodge guy, but that was the first thing to come to mind when I seen it. Ant thoughts guys ?? That would be the same time frame wouldn't it ?? It would of been a heck of a race none the less.

Really cool Dave. I was fortunate enough to get a few original pics of my copos - you've got some real treasures there.

I really love the car, owner stories, and photo history on your car! Such an amazing day two historical trip you have documented.
Did it ever come to a conclusion where the vintage drag photos are from? I'm kind of interested since it looks like my 67 gold L79 M21 4.56:1 Malibu might be sitting in the background shot of the photos in post 429020 on pg 17. The car was out of West Chevrolet in Mogadore, just outside Akron, and raced local dragways by Frances Ripley from Tallmadge and then Greg Phile from Ravenna. Can anyone pinpoint the dragway in those photos dated June of 72?
