User name BobM426 I have a old 67 Barracuda race car I am researching. I will post pictures later. I noticed you have a pictue of my garage at the Motorplex on your website (the one with the neon & replica of PORYYS restaraunt). I am interested in Drag race history & memorabilia
I also went along with a friend from Duluth and raced a 67 Coronet RT 426 Hemi factory racer at Brainard when I was younger. We always got beat by John Hagen in the end : ( I also noted that one of your members was seeking information on John Rivers & his Hurst Hemi Dart. John worked for the Milwaukee Road downtown when my dad worked there and I saw the car often. I later had a chance to buy the restored car from a guy in Florida and looked at trading my Hemi Challenger + cash for it. Wish I would have bought it. He called the car “Dart Vader” and it was restored Black with all the paperwork from when John bought it.
