Yet I want to know who was the baddest of the bad? Who was out there, that you knew by and large you were like don't "f" with this guys car, he'll blow your doors off kind of thing?
there were these guys in denver, one of whom is still around, tony richards and his brother, bruce. late 70's early 80's, tony was building stroker RB's long before there were kits or anything. he was building 511's, and they were wicked.
they had a shop and did mostly high performance stuff, but any kind of mopar work.
bruce had a hemi cuda, built from the ground up. besides strokers, tony's real specialty was torquflites. i'm sure it probably was, but i never knew or saw that cuda beat.
bruce used to laugh that he would take people for a ride, and they would come back impressed as hell. then he told them that all they got was the rear primaries on the progressive carb setup, and he would take them out for another ride. this time they came back scared ----less!
