Very cool!  Neato car!  :thumbsup:  I don't have Facebook otherwise I would check it out.  I really like that fact that he runs his car in races!

BTW- at first glance at the pic, I thought I was looking at a 1/64 scale Hot Wheels sized diorama!  :faint:

Sorta like Mr. Roger's Neighborhood!

1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.

That’s too cool to see a Cuda win!  :2thumbs:
Google has a bunch of sites, here’s a few…

Hot Rod Magazine has a video (with Heart’s “Barracuda” for background music)
- The video actually played on my office computer.  Don’t know how it made it through all of the firewalls.  Glad it did.

BTW – Awesome first picture, I also thought it was a diorama.
