Great topic!

We started with our '65 Dodge Coronet that my grandparents bought new and gave to my dad around 1984. When my dad stumbled across a Max Wedge intake manifold, he had to have it, and after my grandmother passed, we started to build the Dodge into a street car. After one time at the dragstrip, dad got the bug again. The slicks went on, the exhaust came off, and the "Dodge" was a show/race car ever since. We started to make friends at the Mopar events, and 1996, Dave Duell convinced us to run the Max Wedge Shootout at the Mopar Nationals, which got us hooked on Nostalgia Super Stock. In 2002 the owner of the Chrysler Classic series changed the rules to disallow the '65 cars in Max Wedge, so we picked up a carbon-copy '64 Plymouth Belvedere. We transferred the M/W drive train, and have been racing the '64 since 2003.

We race N/SS because it is a cheaper alternative, and a lot of fun! We would love to race Super Stock some day, but finances haven't allowed it yet. So for now we are fans, and part-time crew members for our friends in S/S.
