This is Wiley's son, Dorian. This car had 440 six-pack in it.

Wiley had a 64 or 65 Barracuda with a 340 in it that was painted like Dorian's car. He towed it with a 1968 340 GTS convertible.

As I recall, Wiley rolled the Barracuda in 1978 or 1979 at 75/80 and that's when he got out of racing.

Wiley and Dorian were both real nice guys.



Actually Wiley raced the Dart Convert many years later in Street Elim at both 75/80 and Capital Dragway. As I recall he was very competitive for many years going into the early 90's with Dart and was usually near the top of the points with it at both tracks.
One thing Wiley would always bring some food with him in the staging lanes and uaually while we would be waiting he would be warming it up on the intake manifold of the Dart. A strange thing for me to remember I know.. But it was kinda funny.
