Re: I've had it!!!!!
Art and or M68,
What was the big complaint back then.. Guys putting the T/A fiberglass hoods on the 70' Hemi Challengers. Oops, just found out that in late 70', T/A fiberglass hoods were available on 70' Challengers, when the factory ran out of 'shaker' hoods. And in 71', the T/A fiberglass hood was an option for the Challenger. Paul Last edited by Paul Ceasrine; 04-04-2010 at 09:58 PM. Reason: addition/correction |

And that little bit of misinformation won us some races. The most memorable was Indy 1980. Not in the final. That was against Al Provost and there was no fooling him.

Re: I've had it!!!!!
ART,
We called them the 'PICAYUNES". Now I remember, the big complaint, the guys with the 'shaker' hoods on the 70' Challenger's and Cuda's were molding the scoop to the hood with 'bondo'. To ensure a better seal, and gain a little more height on the scoop. When the SS/D and SS/DA cars started cleaning up, them 'PICAYUNES' protested.. Paul |
