Friends Cars
back in the good old days
(1972-75)
65 Falcon
This car previously owned by my friend Norbert was originally purchased as a drag car and called the "Teachers Pet". After racing a few years, it was street driven. It had the 271 hp 289, 4 sp toploader and Detroit Locker rear end.
This 60 Pontiac was Randy's 1st car, It had a 261 truck engine in it with a split manifold, to give it dual exhaust. It sagged so bad that he put a bunch of those coil spring spacers it the coils to lift it. Rode like a truck.
Als 68 Firebird was equipped with a 396 L78 Chevy motor, that I so graciously gave him. I'm an idiot!!!
Car was very quick...4.88 gears and various 4 speeds...Al was hard on trannies. He is building a 26 Ford now, Chevy powered, of course.
Bill owns this 69 Dart GTS now. It is a 340 4 speed car. He owned the 68 GTS in the 70s that had a 383, then 440, .He also had this 63 Impala SS (below)
My Brother in law (Ted) owned this 70 Dodge Wagon, with factory 383/4 speed.
