The ones that I dream about lately are the competitive cars from the late 70s / early 80s. Cars like Bob Marshall's A990 with factory trunk floor, notched frame rails, 14 x 32 slicks mounted on Super Trick wheels, simple roll cages and nosebleed wheelies from SS springs and ladder bars. I first fell in love with Super Stock back then and that era of car / driver made a profound change in my automobile tastes that will last forever.
Whoa--- Am I looking into a mirror ????
