How times have changed! Everyone in that picture with exception of guy in blue shirt is either holding ore looking at a cell phone. When those cars were new nobody could have even imagined a phone you could carry around.

 

Interesting car with the max wedge scoop, spindle mounts and radiused wheelwells. Also has the driver sitting in the back seat. I've seen this pic a couple times but I've never seen any others or heard any history on the car.

 

Found a couple cool shots of Al's 64 before it got cut up. I had never seen it unaltered without the straight axle before.

 

A couple after surgery

 

One of the max wedge hardtop

 

I was studying this picture trying to figure if the driver was sitting in the back seat or in the center like a later funny car. The lack of injectors or blower sticking up through the hood is a bit odd on this car.

 

Hard to tell but it doesn't look like a center steer. I thought it was different with it not being blown or injected also. Could be like **** smiths with the engine set back and an enderle type low profile setup. More questions than answers I guess.

 

I posted these pics on a MoPar site and received this response.

“Looks like the livery of Harrop's A/FX car with its lettering removed.
The only factory 10"/15" AWB, built by **** Branster.”

He is a very knowledgeable poster.

 

Harrops car was a hardtop though and was plain white. @slayer was closer. The livery actually looks just like color me gone but we all know that became the mr norms car, and was also a hardtop.

 

Speaking of livery and Harrop, I recently got this picture. I've seen 2 different flying carpet paintjobs. Both were white cars with different graphics, one being the former ramchargers 10,15 car after bob destroyed the 1st. Never saw this design before.
Edit: Here's a color shot, found on the hamb of all places. Note car had been converted to center steer in this shot. Rear wheelwells remind me of stricklers car in this shot. His was the only factory car that had goofy looking rear wheelwells if you study the old pics.
