1969 my buddy got his dads 64 El Camino and we went to Lions on a Wednesday night. We took turns running it down the track. The next week I went back with my 1960 289 3sp on the floor Ranchero ( the only non mopar I have ever owned). I was at the track at least 3 times a month. Late 1970 I bought a repossessed 1970 340 4 sp Duster and was totally hooked. Raced brackets and then built my first Stock Eliminator engine (did all the machine work my self at Cerritos College). Raced at the Last Drag Race at LIONS in stock eliminator got beat bad by Dave Benisek's Buick. I have raced small block stick shift Mopars ever since. I hope to have my Challenger done soon. The best part of racing is all the people you meet that become friends.
