Re: Stein's Black 63 found
What's with the stripes on the early chrysler headers/collectors ?
They were on the dodge here as well? |

Re: Stein's Black 63 found
Thyose painted stripes might be an old racers trick. Where the paint stops burning is where the max temp is.. This is where you'd cut the tube for best torque effiencency.

Re: Stein's Black 63 found
Looks like Island Dragway but maybe a few years earlier than I was showing up there on a regular basis....
Jerry was from the same town I lived in for a while and I think he still lives there. I ran into him a few years ago near where I work in a hardware/tool store. He was a great racer in his day and very competitive..... He loved to throw a football around while waiting in the lanes to race...... Well he was a Phys Ed teacher for many years so thats no surprise....

Re: Stein's Black 63 found
Correct me if I'm wrong.
I think I remember seeing a red Teachers Pet car at the ETown divisional some 6 or 7 years ago maybe it was. Watching Stock Qualifying that Friday morning was a drag racing highlite for me. So many cars seemed to be a lil dusty and are probably only out once or twice a year. Stock and Super Stock qualifying just kept going and going, sooo many cars. best Friday morning I've ever had. Stood under the tower w sunglasses to keep from losing an eye from the burnout box rocks a kicking. those engines were singing some great songs that a.m. |

Re: Stein's Black 63 found
Stein replaced the black 63 some years later with a red one, the 64 was always red.
The lady claming to have Steins car is miss informed, it was not dammaged in a towing acident, it was hit in the pits at a points meet at E-town and repaired. It was sold to Wes Coleman of Paterson, NJ then to Ben Lawson, Ben sold it to the Now Owner in PA with the Alum. still on the car. Her car has red interior witch is not correct either.
