If you look close at the very first of the video you can see Mr Plymouth
being towed with a tow bar at the gas station...
You will also see Cotton Perry's "pocket rocket" 66 Chevy II in the video
Cotton Perry, from Ringgold, GA., drove a bread truck route during the
week. Perry teamed up with engine builder, Jim Headrick, to run one of
the dominating cars in NHRA MODIFIED class. The Chevy II was powered by
a 301 CU. IN. straight 6 CYL. engine with a Doug Nash 5-speed
transmission. The car ran mid 6'S in the 1/8 MI. and mid 10'S in the 1/4 MI.
His biggest win was the US NATIONALS. Cotton also drove the SS/L Chevy
II of Jim Daniels to a win in the 1978 GATORNATIONALS.
