    Post Your Vintage Drag Racing Pics!!

    My uncle Rick behind the wheel, about 6 months out of high school and about a year before he received an all expenses paid trip to Nam, with Bill Golden standing along side. My uncle Bill worked with Golden in the aero space industry back in the 60s and they were pretty good friends. I still...

    Building a 273

    You probably have this info already but just in case I'll post them. When I inherited my uncles '65 Formula S I also got all his Hot Rod magazines (complete up to '74 or so) and a lot of white paper from MOPAR. Clearly he was going to drag race the car, obvious by all the paperwork he'd...

    Happy Birthday to my 66.

    Been there but with my wife once. As a side note, we have a very comfortable couch.

    Happy Birthday to my 66.

    ok, I guess I'll be that guy. How is your '66 55 years old? Assuming it was built in Dec of '65 it'd be 54.

    '66 Sure Grip ID?

    The '65 Barracuda S I inherited came with lots of parts and pictures. Sometime in the early 80's my uncle bought a wrecked '66 Formula S and striped it for parts, engine, 4 speed, and the rear end among other items. If I've read correctly the '66 came with the small sure grip? Is there anyway to...

    Things your Dad used to say.

    Dad was a Marine, Korea. The one I heard the most when I was a kid... "if you don't knock this **** off, you and I are going to be taking a 3 legged hike to the hospital to get my foot outta your ***". He's been gone 20 years, miss him every day.

    Saw in the owners manual it was delivered to the dealer on 12/4/64. Gotta be a pretty early Formula S?

    Pictures only thread

    Haven't had a chance to do much since I brought it home 2 weeks ago, just a little tinkering here and there. My uncle bought new and I inherited it after he passed this year. I grew up next door to him so I know the car pretty well. 29,*** original miles. He saved everything, boxes from the...

    There's not much original paint left, the right side door and rear 1/4 have primer on them, I remember he got dinged in the 1/4 back in the 60s but don't know about the door. Almost all the paint is gone on the top, hood and trunk. I'm thinking of putting it as close as I can to when I was a kid.

    There's an alley that parallels Garfield in dad's old neighborhood, one or 2 house's off Garfield, and I can vividly remember going with dad to check on my grandpa during the riots and across the street the house on the alley had sandbags on the roof facing Garfield. The neighbors and my...

    They lived on Taft, about 4 houses East of Garfield and a few blocks South of Gardendale. My grandpa bought in the mid 40's when it was new and sold and in the mid 60s, right after the Watts riots. Dad left home in '52 to join the marines at 16.

    Petty crashed #1 'cuda in February '65. in June of the same year he won his class at the Spring Nationals in Bristol in the # 2 43 Jr. It's fairly well documented. Petty dug up #1 and gave it to a friend when they were expanding the shop.

    another so cal newbie

    Thank you. I'm going to put it back almost original. I'll probably use the sure grip rear end and the front disc's he saved from a wrecked '66 S. Although original the naugahyde on the seats is hard as a rock and the carpet is almost white under the rear window. But it'll be silver w/ black...

    another so cal newbie

    Thanks and I was thinking the same thing. I don't know how many original '65's are out there but this one is a great example of a factory car except for the 2 speakers install behind the rear seat. I'll take lots of pictures long the way. Rick put the Cragars on in '66 and put the original...

    Wheeler Dealers 65 Barracuda

    Petty built a 2nd 43 Jr. Barracuda a few months after the tragedy and raced it for the rest of the season and well into 1966, jumping between stock cars and drag racing. The number one car was dug up and given to a friend.
