Mark.. I found dozens of cars back then so my list would be too long. In '77 I had a chance to buy a '68 Dart(body) in Canada. I can't remember his name(McCullum?) but at that time he was the guy to beat in super/stock. You guys know him. I was looking for some Hemi parts and not a car at that time..$4,000
a complete '65 A990 Plymouth...$900
There was a black '64 Savoy Hemi(body) with all the aluminum still intact. Called the "WIDOW MAKER" it was a stones throw from Miami-Hollywood Dragstrip...$500 w/ a single axle trailer included. The last I heard it was bought and the Hemi mounts were torched off so it run a 440.
Back then hemi cars were everywhere and cheap. I turned down buying a '67 Hemi GTX because I didn't want to pay $350. Don't get me wrong.. I did have a collection. Mostly '63 max wedges.

Can't beleive nobody has mentioned Danny Smith's "Smith Brothers Motorsports" red and black 67 r-o car. Formally the Pringle Brothers and before that it was the Madia Brothers. That's a truley updated legal NHRA car . Oh, by the way, him and Mike Fowler,aka "Squeek" just opened a new shop down by where Fast Racing used to be in Groveport, Ohio.
My favorite car on the planet lol. Thing runs darn good and it just amazes me all of the stuff squeek has done to it to get it where it is. Not to mention Danny is one heck of a driver! Slick car for sure.

I always liked Dave LeClairs SS/EA car, it was white and red but I believe it was wrecked a few years ago thats why its been repainted White. I remember seeing one at the Pgh Classic race a few years ago that was really nice.
