Here are a few:

Mom's 62 Olds 98 4 Door. 16.73 @ 82.79 @ Irwindale
It won G/PS for quite a while until 65 Chev. 396 Wagons
started racing. 394/330HP "slim Jim" auto. Scales said
5400 lbs without driver but I can believe it was that heavy.

Dad's 67 GTX 13.83 @ 102.15 @OCIR 440/375
3740 without driver. 3.23 Open Torqueflite 49 State
Carb (750) a four speed dist. (Dual Pts).
B/PS and it was fast but could not beat Holiday Olds
442 B/PSwhich was a dedicate Racecar with 4.33 Gear

Dad's 69 Charger 500 14.18 @ 99.22 @ OCIR Stock
but no A/C Belt. 3885 Lbs. without driver.

BTW Driver was 308 Lbs (Did not believe scale on that one either)
More to come ...... Kid say back to Garage (Lunch is Over!)
