They were both animals 1000ccs of 4 stroke meant nuthin' when them 2 strokes were around.

I bought a used 69 Mach III while I was in Gainesville. For $300. At first I'd kill the motor starting off at a light until I realized that I had to rev it to three grand just to keep it from stalling. If I really wanted to take off fast, five grand was more like it. Then you had to be sitting way forward to avoid wheelies. No low end torque, but when it got into the power band - hold on!

The White brothers raced this Demon in Super Stock back in the day. Both of them are gone now but a friend has rescued the car and brought it back to life keeping the look of earlier days.

In case you didn't know the dealership photo with the large statue of a man was Art Grindle Dodge in Orlando. And his arm moved up and down, their slogan was "We want to sell you a car."
