Finally took some time and looked this thing over pretty good. I have come to the conclusion that when I do find the owner Larry Swiatek I am going to shake his hand. ANYONE who would get in a car like this back then and actually stomp on the gas pedal was truly a hero.There isn't much there to keep you safe OR going straight ! Thanks to the magazine article sent to me by COPO69 I found out this thing weighed in at a skimpy 1600 lbs.

Hey whitetop I am there with you on jumping over 50 Yenkos to look at this car also. Nothing wrong with the Yenkos but there is something about those old funny cars that just gets to me. Same goes for any old drag car, just check out Kevin's 69 Nickey drag car, it is just plain BAD!........RatPack......
