Talking Re: Your new musclecar

My first new car was a 1965 Plymouth Belvedere 2 that I ordered special after my dad would not co-sign for anything with a 4-speed. Man I wanted a new G.T.O. but the 2 speed auto trans really sucked. Little did he know that back then the mopar torque flite was as good as it gets for racing....lol. I special ordered it with a 426 street wedge (WAY over rated) engine and 3.91 rear end gears. All it had extra was an AM radio, tented windows, and plastic centers on the seats. After installing M/T headers and M/T 7 inch cheater slicks I won around 12-15 class trophies at Aquasco and Capitol raceway in B/SA at that time (I still have most of them in my garage) and a DRAG TIMES Jr. stock "runner up" trophy to the Kurtz & Calderhead '57 F.I. sedan delivery (with 4-speed hydro trans and Jenkins Comp. engine) at Aquasco, Md. back then just before I was drafted in the Army and gave it to my dad to trade in on a 1966 Pontiac GP for himself (didnt think I would make it back). After that Army tour was over I stayed with a bunch of Corvettes and a new 1968 Z-28. I raced them all and won a couple of times at Ohio Valley Raceway with a 66 Corvette in E/SP class while stationed at Fort Knox, Ky. Those were the days watching guys like Bob Glidden race his 2 428 CJ's (convt.and fastback) and Herb McCandless in a new hemi dart at U.S 60 and Ohio Valley. S/S and Jr. stock racing at its best.
