It was nice meeting you shelbydogg! :cheers:

Thanks Terry! Nice meeting you too.  Didn't know you were from Missouri till I found your flyer in my car and Donny had your cell phone number.  If you've been to many Monster Mopar Weekends, I was the one that raced a 440 Arrow then a 440 Iroc Daytona for about 10 years.  I had them painted the red and white scheme like the old Geoffrion/Alderman colors. I did my own trannies, but I'll send whoever asks your way.
 See you at the shows!

I'll try to take a picture of a picture and send it up.  Hope it turns out.

Here is my Arrow at the old Gateway race track.  Those 4 win stickers on the window won me Trophy Track Champion for '93.

I bought an ALSTON Chassis kit for $499 from Bickel and built the whole car in my garage with a hacksaw and a hand grinder.    If you ever saw an ALSTON early kit, every tube had to be cut. If you neede 6" for a strut, you cut 6" off of the 4' tubes in the box.

I'll send a pic of the Daytona when I get home. No pics at work....

Here's my Daytona.  Sold it to the Police cheif of Laurence, LA. I hope it survived Katrina.  The fastest I dialed it was 10.05 in the quarter.   If it ran into the 9s, It changes all of the rules in the NHRA, and I didn't want to deal with that so I never put the 1050 dominator on it.
