In '80 and '81 I ran this '68 Satellite Vert that I bought from a co-worker, he left it sit in his garage for 5 years and the battery split open and made a mess of all the chrome and detail work he had done on the motor compartment. It had a 400 built at D&J speed shop in Cincinnati, Dana 60 with 4.10 gears, column shifted 727. I picked up a free pair of worn 9" slicks and mounted them on some 8" wagon wheels I had, took the car to the track and was shocked when it ran 12.90's thru the sidepipes. After two runs the tech man came over and told me I could only run 13.50 with a convertible without a roll bar. I changed the carb to a 650 with vacuum secondary and a stiff spring, car slowed down to 13.70's and I raced it that way for 2 years. It was cool to unlatch the top and hit the button to lower it for a breezy ride home.
