Drag Racer '69 396SD!!!
Permalink  

...I was up at Thunder Mountain Raceway outside Kelowna this afternoon.  ...Spotted this real deal '69 396SD parked in the pits!

Spoke to the owner, who's owned it since 1970! Really nice guy. He's been drag racing it in the Okanagan for over 25 years! ...and he doesn't have a right arm either!!!

I told him about the asking price for a well restored compairable ride (cars I've seen on this website)  ...not sure if he believed me or not??? confuse

He even pulls a trailer behind this thing to all the drag race events ...and it's converted to run on propane!

...this is likely going to make all you '68-69 purists out there cry!

...Does the 1/8th mile at Thunder in 7.5 secs

He said he's had many $$$ offers from guys to sell it... NOT happening.
