Almost 63......Been a drag race fan since before I was allowed to drive. The 409's were brand new cars when my dad took me to Aquasco Drag strip in southern Md. to see Dave Strickler in his '61 "Old Reliable" byscayne in a match race. I remember the finish line (shut down area) after the speed traps was DIRT. My Uncle gave me stacks of HOT ROD mags. dated from back in 1948-1949 and newer to read and I almost read the print off of the pages....lol.
