You cant bring that era back because back then the guy who worked the hardest won. Those wre the good ole days.

I agree 110%. I remember seeing your dad at US 60 in Kentucky in his 68 Dart when it was a new car (Mr. 4-SPEED). I was stationed at Ft. Knox after my south east asia "vacation" and went to the drags there and Ohio Valley every chance I could get away from that Army crap. That was in 1967 thru early 1969. Really good memories.
