Especially the one that appears in the October 2009 Muscle Car Review. Article is - for the most part - correct. Cars best speed was actually 116.88 and the ET, although correct, sure didn't happen with that funky T85 in it. BTW, that particular run was a 4 car abreast run at Rockford dragway. Don't know where they came up with a weight of 3300 pounds. It tipped the scales at a little over 3600 pounds. Brings back a lot of fun memories.

As I said " for the most part" --- I didn't even pick that one up though. They got the color and decal placement exactly correct though. Fuel lines, filters, wiring, all looks correct. Don't remember the original radio having an 8-track. Car was an awesome street sleeper. With a pair of Atlas Bucrons on the back, it ruled the street in 63.

No oil bath air cleaners on any Max Wedge that I know of. And of course you know I love that car.
