The ones I can think of are all the Sportsnationals, Indy, Las Vegas- Mopars at the strip and Mission,B.C. There are more I'm sure.It has to be one of the best shows going. You can go on the NHRA website and look under the tab for schedules and see what National events will run Super Stock. And if Super Stock Class is contested you will see some heads up racing of any AH cars that are there for that race. Even if class is not contested there may still be an AH Dart or Cuda at the race. But the Hemi Shootouts will attract the largest gathering of the cars to see. And it is well worth the trip to see the show. One of the best times is always at the sportsnationals in Belle Rose coming up in April.

The shootout is run at Maple Grove in October, Indy, the Sportsnationals in Columbus, Belle Rose & Fontana. These are all NHRA events. In addition, there is one in Vegas at the Mopars at the Strip event.

Its got a cool nostalgic vibe about it. oh, im not changing much if anything really... right now, im working on polishing the wheels, and just cleaning everything on the car. just freshening everything up basically. so far i have rounded up the old wilwood brake calipers that need alot of rebuilding and work to get them working again. polished the front wheels, along with the centercaps. drained, cleaned, and refilled the 60 out back and im ordering all new lug nuts which it really needs, ill be making the order today or tommorow for sure. then, when it warms up, im borrowing the powerwasher from work, and completely detailing the car. powerwashing the engine bay to get it ready for the new powerplant. and going nuts on the under carriage to make it nice and degreased. also washing and waxing the entire car. motor will be a 440 with a set of headers made specially for 440 barracudas. i love this car. my grandfather owned it, and raced it a few times. then sold it. my dad was in love with it when he was my age, so he bought it from my grandpas friend. and hes owned it ever since. so now im a 3rd gen owner/ driver of this car! you could say its a John Sealock family car i guess! ill make a thread with more pictures and updates as i finish stuff on it!

Joey thanks man! i could go on for hours and probably days with what i want to do to it in the future. i dont mean like restore it back to factory, but restore it to the quality of these SS/AH cars. everything just seems so perfect on them. i have not one intention of selling...this car will be owned by me, and my son, and hopefully my sons son, and so on...
