It appears that some, few, people got off on the wrong foot in this thread. First it is always good when one of the most historic drag race cars in the history of drag racing is located. A lot of them are in pretty bad shape when they are located. Many are left to just retire into history. Don Carlton and the Missle cars were a great part of Drag Racing History here in North Carolina.

Photographs of the Motown Missle are available in many locations both on and off the internet. I have several different photos from all of the tracks in North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia. Many people on this thread were interested in the fact that the car was found and the history involved with it. You owning the car and what it has gone trough, is part of the history of this car. These cars continue to make history for many years after the last time the original owner and driver drove it down the track. At the East Coast Drag Times Reunion in Henderson, NC every year there is a car or two there that has been found and the Owner wants to talk to old racer who can shed some light on the history of a car. It would be good if you could come on the MOPARTS site, and many other sites, and search all of the theads that have ever been posted and read the stories that are on these sites that make up the history of the famous Missle cars. There are posts here from the people who were responsible for the design, building and racing of the Missle cars.
