I am 45 and started racing when I was 17. Had a 15 year break in between. Still racing the same car from the beginning. If I dare say on this board, my 63 Chevy 4 speed Impala.







63 Chevy would have been lined up in the lane next to my 63 Sport Fury in the mid 60's as the 409's and Max Wedges went heads up ! Course we know which one won most of the time. I really like the 62 to 64 Impala's and if I were a Chevy man I would have to build one with a 409. Got any pics of it and stats on the car as I would love to see the pics of it ? Ron




Thanks Ron. I will say if you and I were to line the outcome would not be in question. You would clean my clock. My 63 is relatively stock. 327 with the fuelie heads,stock intake cleaned up a little bit with carter AFB, Municie 4 speed, Stock interior, 4,000 LB car. The best I have run is in the low 13's with street tires. Without a doubt would be better with slicks. It is a driver that I put 2,500-3,000 Miles a year on it. Not a show winner but I drive my vehicles and the fact the car has been in the family since brand new. My father bought the car brand new down in Virginia. He raced the car in the 60's. I have had the car since 81.


Good burnout at least
