What a great car and he's been drag racing for 60 years. Guy's like this are the heart and soul of this sport

Wow, he gets 500 HP outta that 383, w/ factory intake manifold, and runs 11.40's. Wow....

It's always good to see a fellow Arkie doing well. I've seen Hale run many times over the years at a couple of the tracks in the state.
For a .425" lift cam that 383 sounded pretty darned good. Maybe I could talk my wife into letting me buy that wagon. Put some street tires on it and it would make a great grocery getter for our weekly trip to the store. $35k isn't too bad.
But, he might want to put a cover over that Razorback front plate for a while. Our football coach was (rightly) fired yesterday.

If you need to sell her on it...the roll bars are great for keeping grocery bags from falling over....

Well, I tried. I showed my wife the video and explained how the roll bars help secure items.
She said, “35k?” and rolled her eyes. The conversation came to a screeching halt. Dang.
