Wow, Nobody remembers a straight axle '66 Coronet sedan ?

I would think it would stand out like a sore thumb.

Not a 66 but I remember seeing a 68 R/T called Lil' Leprechaun. Wild green paint job that is hard to forget. Maybe some of the folks who race at Great Lakes drag away might chime in. I saw the car in 1989-1990 at the mopar show.

So it sounds like the info I have may be incorrect.
Here is the only photo we have of the car before it was painted green and had the wheel wells radiusd.
