I'd kill for a 24x36 wall poster of this shot. I first saw it in a Car Craft special 25 years ago and it still gives me chills! The Number One Dana Camaro, built for Ole Bardahl, the oil products manufacturer. Started life as a 350 car. One magazine's testers did so many burnouts that they blew up the rear end. By the time Motor Trend got ahold of the car it had a 3:08 open diff and the M/T guys couldn't get it to hook (duh) at the track. It had Cragar G/T mags, which were like S/S's but were cast in aluminum with black spokes.

Bill, do you know if that car was Red by chance? Btw, I think the Cragar G/T was the predecessor to the Cragar S/X wheel. Both had the "Torque Thrust D" look. I got a set of 5 of the S/X wheels.. One was a speed shop display unit and never mounted on anything or with a tire.. Never seen another one since. (other than 1 or 2 old Cragar ads from the early 70s in a magazine)... But I have stopped my search for them after locating the 5th one. Bought a set of 4 a few years ago on Ebay and one was bent on the outer flange.
