Very mixed thoughts on this vid.

Hilarious!! Love how the deck lid is flapping away.

Looks like fun to me.

Big surprise.
Chris loves having fun with his stuff. There are too many people with too much pride to drive a worn out car. For them, it is a shameful thing to be seen in a beat down car. That is a sad thing. Driving a car with battle scars is very liberating. It takes you back to being a young enthusiast where the thrill of the performance trumped the "thrill" of sitting in a lawn chair hoping to score a $4 trophy at the end of the car show.
I've tried to include a "Ratty but running" category at our local Mopar show but I keep getting vetoed by a crusty curmudgeon that ironically, never owned a real nice car.

I love how its junk because the numbers were thief'd off it. Its coronet body double is probably on the same property

The thing I thought was odd, was the fact the car is so stripped, yet the engine and drive train were untouched. I'm sure it was set up for a good youtube video. Still fun to watch.

The car would probably sell for $20K on ebay.

Add a 4 point roll cage, and some sheet metal over the door openings and it looks about like our 1st dirt track car! Ours was a 69 383 4 speed Road Runner in about the same shape, I bought our RR off a guy at a gas station for $150 in 1976, drove it home, sold off everything I could. Went to the track with enough money left over in my pocket to pay for the pit pass. We ended up finishing in 8th place in the semi feather, paid $40! Probably the only time in all those years of racing I was money ahead! LOL!

One of the guys had a friend that owned a farm. He left us "test" the car in one of his fields before we took it to the track. That was great fun! Gene
