After searching for the entire 26½ years that I have owned my car I FINALLY tracked down the original owner. I had already talked to every owner but him. I found out his parents still lived around here, got in touch with them, and they had him call me. Man did I find out a lot including further verification that it is as close to original as I thought. Which makes me even more pissed that it got hit this summer. The most amazingly cool thing I found out is that he has a bunch of pictures and 8MM films of the car on the street and track from '69-'72. He says that one of the films is of a 10.92@127MPH pass at Cecil County Dragway in '71!!! He is going to get everything together and send it to me. TOO F'N COOL!!! I also found out why it won't run on pump gas. The pistons, which I was told were 11.5 to 1s, are actually .60 over 12.1 to 1s resulting in 392 cu.in. He tried a number of different solid cams from Mopar, Crower, Isky, and Sig Erson and didn't remember which one was in it when he sold it to his younger brother because he "detuned it so his brother wouldn't die". It ran 12s when his brother had it. He sunk $1,200 into the heads in 1970 (huge money back then) with a guy who was legendary around here and they are maxed-out as far as 906 heads can be. Back then it had a custom-made crossram on it. He actually did blow up the 8¾ which is why the Dana 60 is in it. I knew from the numbers on it that it was a '69 B body rear and he said it came out of a totalled '69 Hemi Road Runner. He had it professionally shortened by another legendary shop around here. He was the one that put the 5.38s in it and he said he used to launch the car at 5,000RPM and shift at just under 9,000RPM! Holy S***! He put nothing but the best into the car and it was pretty much the only street car in town running in the high 10s back then. I have had tons of guys through the years tell me stories about it and how it was "the car to beat". We were on the phone for 2 hours. It was just too cool. I can't wait to get all the stuff he is sending me.
