Also in response to earlier post we had a 331 in the car and were making passes in the mid 10's prior to painting the car. After we hurt the 331 and the paint was laid on we put the 355 in it so it would be drivable for shows and parades. We have a 306 inch motor for the car that has never made it's way into the engine compartment. We had a hard time running the car hard after it was done because it is so darn nice.

Welcome Steve.
That's a great picture from 1972.
Where was it taken?

Was this car a big block from factory?

I believe it was a 375 horse car. I think it is worth more than $26,000 even if it didn't have a motor in it. You could put a small cube motor in it a still run NHRA SS/EM or SS/FM . There you go Rob! Car has your name on it!!!

You are correct it was a 396/375 car. We have a 306 short block with the car that would probably put the car somewhere in the SS/D or EM class. However it does not have modern speed equipment and would have a tough time keeping up with the 18 and 23 degree super engines with jessle drives and sheet metal intakes of today's modern modified ride. But you sure would look cool doing it.

I can see Rob Clary in that drivers seat now. He can feel how a small block feels and revs!
