Thank you Glenn. Please show this to Scott to see if it brings back any old memories. Tell him this is my best buddy Mark Poole with his new 69.

Can't find it, but search for Larry Kopp. He had a '57 wagon called "Madman", whipped my ass many times. He later went on to prostock truck.

 

If anyone wants to buy a cool one, this one is awesome. I did the trans in it years ago and know the history of it very well.

It´s not only huge, it moves too. 7,42 in the 1/4 mile.

 

I cheated and swiped this from VOETOM's ebay link. There's his pop's car in the far lane... (please don't sue me)

 

BTT; I am bring this post btt. because I LOVE STATION WAGON RACE CARS.
I ran a 1963 Dodge Wagon 383 F/SA in the 70's. I could never quite beat a Dodge Wagon that ran out of The Rod Shop (Ohio). But I sure had fun with that car.

 

must have been dave boetman(sp) ....he pretty much ruled back then..... brandon

 

I knew the vegas would find their way in here. cool pics all

 

Dave and his wife were very competitive. As I remember they campaigned a 69 - 2 door Chev. & 69 - Chev. station wagon, both W/350 SB's. It was not uncommon to see them run against each other for the top money in Stock EL.

 

In the 60's & 70's the NHRA stock classes were on, HP. To Wight ratio.

 

How about the Farmer?

 

Battlestar Galactic

 

You just can beat the burn outs the Wagon Master used to do

 

I remember this car from a book I used to look at in elementary school "Wild and Wacky Cars" or something like that... I always thought it was tits.

 

I ran an E/S 427/410 67 Fairlane 4 door wagon back in the early 70's in stock. It was definetly a thrill ride on 3.5 inch Rambler wheels and 7 lbs of air with 7 inch tires on the back. More like driving a boat in rough seas then a car. Once read the names off the side in high gear at the Gator Nationals with my partner driving. Have old paper pictures but no way to post them. Ran a best of 11.68 which was the record at the time held by Tony Pizzi's 68 Z/28. I roofed it with a broken locker and changed to a SS/E coupe

 

Here is a pic of my kids 63 Valiant wagon, runs 10.80 123mph. sorry for the bad pic it is a scan from one I had in the shop.

 

Don't let the thread die! MORE PICS!

 

Not really a race car but it's a wagon! This car was more of a cruiser/show car. A good friend of mine built this in the mid 80's
