1967 R/T 440 4-Speed

Here is one for all of the Mopar fanatics. A very nice 1967 440/4-barrel R/T with a 4-speed. This car was at the Street Machine Nationals and had big and little Centerline wheels and painted bumpers.

Day II Mach 1 Mustang

The Car Craft Street Machine Nationals were Muscle Car Heavan! Everywhere you looked was a stock or modified musclecar. This photo was taken in Indy 1980, you could still find a Mach 1 in every newspaper for sale cheap. Customizing a car like this was so commom.

Note: Look at the cars in the background!

Tow Bar 1968 Camaro

When was the last time that you saw a nice Camaro drag car, or any car for that matter being flat towed to the races? I do not know anything about the car, other than it had a very cool Yellow-on-Yellow panel paint scheme.

This photo was taken in the Spring of 1978 at Kansas Cities, KCIR Raceway. Wouldn’t be nice to have this today?

Tunnel Ram Challenger- KCIR Drags 1978

Remember, this photo was taken when you could buy a perfect Hemi car for $5000 bucks, I know because I passed on one! I was at Kansas Cities, KCIR Raceway in the late Spring of 1978 and this car sat in the staging lanes. I remember that it was super nice.

The car was tubbed and had the leaf springs moved in to accept the 12” slicks. The motor was a 440 topped with a tunnel ram and two 850cfm Holley double pumpers.

1971 Stage 1 Buick

This Stage 1 Buick cruised the streets of Omaha, NE in the late 70’s and early 80’s. The car had flawless Silver paint and Orange pinstripes down the side. The Centerline wheels with 4” fronts and 8.5” rears were state-of-the art for the day. As far as I know, the car is still in Omaha and shows up once in a while at the local cruise night.

There was another Buick that roamed the streets back then as well. The car was White with Black stripes and wore Stage 2 badges! The Stage 2 looked sinister with its flat black fiberglass racing bumpers. Where that piece of muscle car history is today is unknown?

Competition Engineering Pro Street Monza

It was an issue of Car Craft magazine in late 1979 and the article had this tubbed Pro Stock style Chevrolet Monza 2+2. The car was doing a tire melting burnout at an intersection of a city street. The best part was that the impromptu photograph had onlookers staring in amazement from their station wagons and sedans.

This photo (much less exciting) was taken as the Competition Engineering project car, with a Doug Nash 4+1 transmission sat motionless at the 1980 Street Machine Nationals in Indianapolis, IN.

454 Baldwin-Motion Camaro

Omaha, Nebraska 1977, I was in high-school and this car sat in the garage down the street. The day I shot the photo was the last time I ever saw it on the car being driven. This Baldwin-Motion Camaro had a 454, 4-speed with overdrive and Cragar Super Trick wheels. The Camaro had just 7500 miles showing on the odometer, it blew a timing chain and became a garage dweller.
