Works for me. From 1980 to 93 I had a red '61 Phoenix 2 dr hardtop that I semi-restored.
Wish I still had it. Classy, ugly car.

So Neil, I'm guessing that after racing a car like that one, racing a 301 turbo Firebird is mainstream?

NHRA allowed me to have an aluminum TQ as long as it had the parking brake unit on the tail housing....069J converter...and the STR-14 intake and carbs that I bought from Willard Wright. Bought the car for 20 bucks in Covina, CA and towed it back to western NY. It was my first Mopar and I really liked it....Unfortunatley other SS/IA Camaros had me covered by 3 tenths....SO, the following year switched to a 1961 Dodge Phoenix convertible. That moved me into SS/KA and only 2 tenths short of being competitive. I didn`t stray to far from local tracks back then. The Phoenix was bright red with a white top and the Pioneer was deep purple.. wish I had better pictures of them. Have always been fond of odd combos as Billy can attest to, lol

Bigger is Better.





I have never seen a Phoenix convertible!
Cool pics. Never gave racing one of these a serious thought.
My 318 2bbl hardtop was a fun ride that never ceased to get a "What the # # # # is that?"

These old Plymouths and Dodges are like a Bulldog, they're so ugly they're cute....that includes the '62 cars too.
