My ex-GTX with previous to me owner at the helm....around 1976....fibreglass front end & bumper....amazing the guy kept all the original sheet-metal together. He was a very disorganised man.

Thunderpark Raceway, New Zealand.....

That would be KDWB and WDGY. I will definitely keep my eye out for any of those.

Dad would have run my car with a tunnel rammed 340 with a large home made scoop. It should stand out like a sore thumb based on how he has explained it. Or, after that motor let loose, he put in the 440. The announcer made a big deal about a 440 in a Demon, the crowd came over to see it. None were impressed as it wasn't a show piece, just a racer.
 
@408 swinger here's a few more photos of Gary O's Cuda. It was quite the show piece. Gary sold it to Jack Briner here in town and bought a funny car to race instead. I remember driving by Jack's house and seeing it in the driveway. Those were the days!

Wow, I keep finding more pics. Good thing to post them here. If my hard drive crashes they will still be here.
