Hopefully our Swedish racer will correct me. My recollection is the car had lead bars that were installed in the rocker panels. They were greased. After a burnout Paul would stomp on the brakes sending the bars forward. On launch they would get sent back to the rear. The car was known for the most outrageous wheelstands of the day and it was a photographer's favorite.
I believe it was one of the first 440's built using the short deck 400 block that offer's numerous advantages, primarily a very short and very lite piston. Ahead of it's time and still controversial today as the practice is still in use despite explicit rules to the contrary.
If I'm right, none of this takes away from the historic nature of this car. If your a Direct Connection fan, this car was on either your bedroom wall or garage. It was the car to beat, it was the car to watch. Was the picture shown on this post taken recently? In Sweden or the USA? I would like to see that car again even if it's not as fast as yesterday. I know it was for sale recently. Guess no takers?
