Folks this is a little before my time.
However the music and hot rods reminded me of the days I played with my Hots wheels and Arrora race track. So sit back and grab a cup of MOB and enjoy this little flick.Back to the Past I think it will be enjoyed by Young and old alike. Enjoy...http://oldfortyfives.com/CarsWeDrove.htm "T.M." http://oldfortyfives.com/CarsWeDrove.htm There you go -------------------- ![]() |

My 3 fastest cars were a 1960 Chev Bel-Air 2 -door HD with 348,
3 carbs and Isky cam. After that engine blew (bad piston install) I got a 1962 Chev 409 with Jardine headers & 4.88 rear. I beat every car I raced with it. Only 2 stuck with me to the quarter mile. (327 full-race vette & 421 alum body Pontiac set up by autoshop) The only car every to beat me was a 426 HEMI aluminum body Plymouth with auto trans. (I had close-ratio 4-speed). I stayed with him till 60mph but the auto trans he had was too quick in the shifts. My last car was a Dodge Dart Swinger 340 that was very fast for the engine size. Those were the great days of drag racing. Althought I had about $9000. invested in those cars, their value today would be about $125,000.
