One of our local cars when I was a kid. Lived a very short distance from me and watched him all the time. A real Thunderbolt.

Someone altered the wheelbase on that T-bolt pretty radically.

Boy, I spent many weekends at 75-80 in my youth; I think that is where I caught the &quot;sickness&quot;. When I started racing myself, I realized just how short the run-off was. Neat place and many find memories.

I have another Jewel from 75/80 drag way. A 1969 Mach1 Drag pack that was owned by Lynn Douglas and Raced the D stock class Acapulco Blue. Got photos of the trophies and the Day Lynn Bought the car new. Funny how two Race cars from MD end up near the Va/ Nc line.

Any help in locating an AWB CAR FROM THE 60's is Appreciated.

Someone posted pics of a 64 &amp; 65 Chevelle here a few months ago...

Anybody Recall those ?

Man, that's cool. How often do you see a late 60's big Pontiac in action?
