Welcome aboard. I used to be stationed there 20 years ago. There is a junk yard in North Pole that has quite a few MOPARs in it. My best friend and I used to go in there all the time when we were stationed at Eielson. In fact it has a wrecked dark red V8 A/T 66 Barracuda in there that I used to own. I bought it as a parts car and stipped most of the good stuff off of it. Unfortunately I didn't know to get the gas pedal and cable back then. We realized I should have taken it later when we shoved a 318 in my 65 after we were stationed in SC.

Back then all the drag racing was done on the weekends at small aircraft airports around the state. They would shut down the runway and let the cars run. Unfortunately the quick cars couldn't keep traction as the runways were in good enough shape for aircraft, but not drag cars. Once a year they would also shut down the runway at Ft Wainwright and let them run.
