The most valuable/desirable Stock and Super Stockers
Since just about everyone is done for the year and some of you are snowed in. Here is something for you to think about. I'd like some input for a future National Dragster feature.
What are some of the most valuable cars currently racing? By that, I don't mean who has spent the most money. I'd like some input using the following criteria: Rarity Collectability Provenance (history and race wins, etc.) Desirability Originality (no clones or re-bodies) I'd also want to know if the car is still being raced and how often. Some examples that stand out off the top of my head would be Ben Wenzel's '67 Z-28, Dallas Kelly's Thunderbolt, and (I believe) Richie Pauley's '68 Cobra Jet. What else ya got? |

I think Jim Pancake has an original 1968 Hemi Cuda. I believe he parked it to race a 1968 Dart.

Re: The most valuable/desirable Stock and Super Stockers
I would go with Marshall's dodge, Pancakes Cuda (Jerry Daileys old car) and Dan Fletcher's SS Camaro, it also has a ton of history. But once again we have a post that will turn into a popularity contest so have it.
