Re: Aspen Wagons in Stock
I sorry if I misspoke when I said my kid had the only Dodge Aspen Wagon in stock. I did check Nitro Joe's Stats and did not see any other one being currently raced in 2009. Michael Colaluca 's wagon was very fast and well prepared and I hope he still has it and races again soon! I believe his dad was a tech guy and we meet him at Autolite Nationals in 2006. I meant no disrespect to anybody. I believe Sid Bonnecarre raced a F Body Wagon in mid to late 90s. I don't know if it was a Volare or Aspen. I didn't mean to imply that we had the market exclusively on them.:D:D Check 7411 and you will find a lot more pictures of it, the shot you found was before he was old enough to drive. I drove it a few time before my son turned 15 1/2 old and could get a license. I think the shot you found was a National Race where I somehow got to semi's before getting betten by Gary Waldo who was shot down by his Dad Jim in final. I really like to race my '71 Demon much better(looks like your car) since I don't hit the windshield when I shift to High Gear. Thanks for your interest:D

Re: Aspen Wagons in Stock
Those are neat!
Charlie DeHaven, an E.T. champ out of US-13, used to have an O/SA wagon, but I think he only ran it in Stock for a short time. Anybody happen to know him and how he might be doing? Haven't seen him since the late '90s when we got the Turismo project off the ground. He's a real character! |

Tom Ward has an O/SA Aspen wagon that he is preparing to race again after many years of storage. It is the same car I drove back in the '80s a few times. Jim

Re: Aspen Wagons in Stock
I found out today that Michael's wagon and Sid's are one and the same wagon. It used to be called the "Misguided Missile". It said on the tailgate:" When I grow up I'm going to be a Hemi!" My Kids wagon is called the "Nevada Missile" like all our toys!:)

Re: Aspen Wagons in Stock
Doesn't Phil Marvetz have an F-body wagon in V/SA?

Re: Aspen Wagons in Stock
Holy *****, I should have remembered that......I sold it to him when he was at Nationals in Vegas about 3 years ago. Original white paint, no Air, no power steering and ran like a top! I believe it was a accident investigation vehicle in Washington State. Hated to let it go but he is a cool guy and my buddy! Plus he gave me $400. CASH....... which is fortune for a F Body Wagon even a Aspen that nice!!!:D

Re: Aspen Wagons in Stock
Gee, thank's for remembering me John. It's probably the only rust free aspen in the world,lol. If you ever send me your address I'll send you down a copy of the record, I put your name in like I said I would. It is listed in the digger in mid sept 1/8th mile. Did any one else know that if you set the 1/4 mile record at a national open they also give you the 1/8 record? Mike and I did not know that.... Hope all is well down there.

Re: Aspen Wagons in Stock
Philip, Do you know where the 1/8thmile records are posted? What is the record anyway?
Was that an 1/8th mile event only you were at? |
Re: Aspen Wagons in Stock

Re: Aspen Wagons in Stock
I saw somewhere on the 'net (this site maybe) that someone was building a Volare/Aspen wagon for Super Stock with a 318 4-Speed combo. There were pix of the backhalfed chassis too. Pretty cool!!!

Re: Aspen Wagons in Stock
Hey Mark,
I set the record at the 1/8th mile national open race in august at Portland raceway 9.24 uncorrected, Then Mike went to the 1/4 mile national open race in Kearney the next weekend and set the 1/4 record. NHRA gave him the altitude corrected 1/4 and 1/8th mile records. 9.11. So I had it for a week and never had heard that you could set both records at once. Division 6 only has one race a year were we can set 1/8th mile records so I guess I'll have to go after the 1/4 record next,lol. Are you going to bring the mustang out of the garage and come play with us again? |
Re: Aspen Wagons in Stock
Thinking about it, Phil.
Probably good to get it out there once in a while . It's all freshened up , Cometic head gasket, new converter. I do want to keep it that way in case somebody buys it. They won't have to mess with it. That explains the 1/8th business. I still don't see them listed on the NHRA site, though. |
Re: Aspen Wagons in Stock
Maybe class at vegas,lol? I'm suprised someone hasn't made you a serious offer on the mustang by now.

Re: Aspen Wagons in Stock
Those spoilers are way cool. I wish I could get the kid to take off his roof rack.......probably pick up a MPH. Taking the wind deflector off back window seem to help! Philip: When we set N/SA record last year at National Open they gave us both 1/8 1/4 records.

Re: Aspen Wagons in Stock
The orange wagon in the pictures is Jimmy Nichols' car, I believe. 360 ci powered.
Judy McCormack's was a black sport wagon with all the spoilers and such. I thiink it had a tan interior with buckets and console. 318 ci in a number of horsepower versions. Don |
