Holy *****, I should have remembered that......I sold it to him when he was at Nationals in Vegas about 3 years ago. Original white paint, no Air, no power steering and ran like a top! I believe it was a accident investigation vehicle in Washington State. Hated to let it go but he is a cool guy and my buddy! Plus he gave me $400. CASH....... which is fortune for a F Body Wagon even a Aspen that nice!!!

Gee, thank's for remembering me John. It's probably the only rust free aspen in the world,lol. If you ever send me your address I'll send you down a copy of the record, I put your name in like I said I would. It is listed in the digger in mid sept 1/8th mile. Did any one else know that if you set the 1/4 mile record at a national open they also give you the 1/8 record? Mike and I did not know that.... Hope all is well down there.

Let's see some pictures of those Volare' /Aspen wagons.
Two that I remember are Judy McCormack and Jim Nichols.

Phillip marvetz · 01-22-2010, 12:35 PM

I'll try to post a picture.

Philip, Do you know where the 1/8thmile records are posted? What is the record anyway?
Was that an 1/8th mile event only you were at?

Is this the wagon Jerry Bennett used to run and win ALLOT of Combo I races at Union Hill in the 80's?

If it is, it's another fast MoPar from Graves County, KY!

I saw somewhere on the 'net (this site maybe) that someone was building a Volare/Aspen wagon for Super Stock with a 318 4-Speed combo. There were pix of the backhalfed chassis too. Pretty cool!!!

Hey Mark,
I set the record at the 1/8th mile national open race in august at Portland raceway 9.24 uncorrected, Then Mike went to the 1/4 mile national open race in Kearney the next weekend and set the 1/4 record. NHRA gave him the altitude corrected 1/4 and 1/8th mile records. 9.11. So I had it for a week and never had heard that you could set both records at once. Division 6 only has one race a year were we can set 1/8th mile records so I guess I'll have to go after the 1/4 record next,lol. Are you going to bring the mustang out of the garage and come play with us again?
