Yea that is how they first came out was for racinng at talladega. And according to the rules they also have to be a production car. So they made a limited amount for the public. But your correct nothing could beat them at the time. Specially if they had the 426 in them which the racing ones did.

Didn't the Taladaga Fords have the 428 cobra jets or am I mistaken in this?
There pretty nice cars to seem a little heavey on the front though, not as well balanced as the Charger.

I have no clue on that. Not really a ford fan at all. Maybe ardmore would know. He is the racing expert around here.

Used to have a 2 dr 65 Impala SS, canary yellow, 327, wish I still had it. Wish I had the $ for a 64 Impala. Dream car is a 2 dr 59 Impala, even though it's not a muscle car.

First car I ever owned was a 1956 Pink Cadilac. Payed $50 for it in the bar, drove it for three months befoe it calved on the side of the road, hitch hicked away from it.

Dream car?

1969 ZL-1 Camero.

For those that do not know, ZL-1 was the big block aluminum engine.

They where built for Super Stock NHRA racing. Super Stock A as a matter of fact.

Of course, the blocks where weak so they pretty much where all blown up and replaced with the iron block L-88's. I dont know how many where built.

There is only one numbers matching ZL-1 Camero left in the world.

There are two 1969 ZL-1 Corvetts. Only two where built and both are in private collections.

I am pretty sure this info is correct, if you have other info let me know.

Before the truck, we had a 87 Monte Carlo SS with a 406sb and spray. Ran hi-6s in the 1/8th. Was a ton of fun on the street. Only got beat once out of many, many races and that was because we puked a driveshaft. Sold it to get started in this and now that we're half way on our feet, we're gonna build something else. We beat all of the Mustangs in our town with the SS, so we're thinkin about building a Mustang coupe and beating them at their own game. Wouldn't that be sweet! lol

Also had a 94 T/A Ram-Air clone, Teal Green 6 speed, was alot of fun top speed and in the curves, but didnt stand a chance against the SS in straight line which is what we live for. Aint nothing like yankin the front wheels off the ground :wink:
