As I posted before I wanted a Road Runner, but when it came time and I could afford a new car I bought a 1971 340 Demon with and auto and 3.91 suregrip. It took some driving finesse but bone stock with headers and E70/15 Goodyears it ran 14.11 @ 99 . I still own this car which served me well as a bracket racer, a Stocker and a Super Stocker for many years. It has 15,003 original miles on it. I love that car! Jim
