Re: race car pics from the early 70's
here is John Cunats 57. this thing was cool !!! small block 4 speed car.....Ron Leek named him the "madman" he wound this car up to about 7500 rpm and sidestepped the clutch...i think we have more super 8 than pictures of this car.......
my dad told me story once about this car. they were warming it up to go racing and it just didnt sound right. after about 4 7000 plus rips of the throttle, they heard a noise and my dad looked down at his feet and there was the oil filter spiining like a top......yep threw a rod....imagine standing over the front tires and this thing lets go...WOW....
