Chrysler, The Early Years.
 
Just figured I'd start something on some of the early Chrysler performance cars from the years covering '62 '63 '64 '65, the different classes & class winners from various tracks...Go!

Jerry, what does the car look like today, is it still racing...got any pic's of it.

Jerry Hatch 03-24-2012 03:00 PM

Re: Chrysler, The Early Years.
 
When I drove the car it was owned by Bob Dow of St. Stephen New Brunswick. It was in stocker trim but bracket raced locally. The car has alway remained the original blue you see in the above pictures. The last couple of years that Bob owned the car he had the name "Blue Mule" painted on the doors. Bob sold it to Mike McDonald in Nova Scotia. Mike still has the car and it remains the same. I have a couple pictures of it in the late 80's.....just do not know how to post. Jerry.

Jerry Hatch 03-24-2012 03:06 PM

Re: Chrysler, The Early Years.
 
HM; the car isn't being raced, to the best of my current knowledge it has been in storage for a number of years. It is an original 415 HP stage II car. Jerry.

I saw it at Indy in later years but the owner or driver was never around.
