Its a Hemi 4 speed that has been turned into a crash box. The wedge under the tranny gives it away.

Bill, I'm not 100% sure that this picture was taken at 42, it looked to me like it was. I remember that building near the track. Last time I raced there was in the late 80s... I'll bet "Big Daddy Steve" (68l30) will know where these were taken!!

I can't find the close up picture of the rear wheel/tire that is out there. This is the best I could do...BTW, yes they are slicks.

The original owner said he put the "SS" badges on it to keep the wolf hidden behind sheeps clothing.

By the way look at the fender alignment to the door.

I am sure there are some EXPERTS out there that would say look at the 69 plates withh " SS " badges...must be a 396 car...

I really am into day 2 cars and I had THIS picture of the blue 69 COPO as the background on my computer for most of the summer and I just updated it when I bought the "Ratical One" Camaro...................

10.00-15's on 8in. Cragers. I like the shackle setup on the green car. That's a very cool piece.

Looks like 42 to me. The concession building in the pic looks like the one they used long ago. That would be on the side of the track that ran along route 42 and not what is the only pit side today. I believe they also ran multi car races as a gimmic back in the early mid 70's. I know three cars was not unheard of and that would explain the extra tree. Rich, the other picture looks familiar also. I can place the church in the distance and the Parma area comes to mind. I was thinking the Parmatown mall area at first, but the church is different. The powerhouse in the backround is throwing me off...Might be on Pleasent Vally close to York?? Pre Tri High?? It's driving me nuts...I can picture the area!!
