Hemmings Muscle Machines April issue

[Jim Ferron]

Thanks for starting the thread Sam! It was a real surprise to stumble on it!

The boys from Hemmings saw the car at Musclepalooza I...I wasn't by the car at the time but my 13 year old gave 'em my shop number and....

Wheel hop! Lemme tell ya about wheel hop!

The car was un-drivable as I bought it! If memory serves me, my buddy Ted, had Mr Gasket No-Hop bars on it for years and years [not there when I bought the car]

I couldn't pull the trigger on that [or SSM bars like I have on my '67]So I tried replacing the 4 upper soft bushings with urethane [shhh...don't tell anybody] Cured it 100%

I've got a day one Polaroid Ted gave me and some from when he raced it at Rockingham..I'll post tomorrow...

Again thanks to all for the kind words.
