Is this the car that Norm Brandes (sp) owned? I saw his at Union Grove in the late 1980s and was absolutely astounded. It was pretty much a brand new A990.

Herb "Mr 4 Speed" a long time ago.

It looks like Herb taped a rug to the roll cage in the above photo...anyway here's a few more shots of Herb McCandless '65 A990 Belvedere.

Re: A990 Super Stockers
 

Not certain who owned this car or if it was a genuine A990 package car or not but odds are good that it was since it has a single headlight grille and Match Race Madness was sudenly big business in 1965.

Anybody know anything about this car?

The original "Hemi Countdown." Grandpa (Harry Holton) bought it new from a dealership in Reno, NV in 1965. Bought it back in '91 and raced it until the end of '95. Car is currently owned by Mark Vieira.

These pictures are dated 1/22/66 and were taken at Kingdon Dragway in Lodi, CA.

This is a different car than the one I posted about on pp. 15-16 of this thread.

"Hemi Countdown" as I remember it. This picture is from 1992.

I was 10...

Looks like there's a '68 car in the waterbox in the background, but it's not one I recognize.

Re: A990 Super Stockers
 

I'm not sure if it's the same '65 A990 Coronet, but it's supposed to be unrestored...

Re: A990 Super Stockers
 

This almost looks like it could be either the old Mr Tomato or The Funny Car A/FX'ers...both front & rear wheelwells were cut very crudely then someone spray-bombed it orange.

Re: A990 Super Stockers
 

This is undoubtedly the same car ...where is it today? I have some very good video footage of this car in action at Da Grove circa 1991. I'll do my best to post it here. Looking back, it is shocking to know that such a historical time capsule was raced locally on a regular basis back then.
