Would be great if somebody would post nat records & Indy class winners for the '60's & '70's, especially. OR, if there are links to click on to easily find all this info, would somebody please post those links, for info which is no longer accessible on these old threads.

Thanks !

RatPatrol and I are trying to compile all this history while it can still be scrounged up. I'll see what's missing here & try to post.

It's a shame NHRA didn't keep & post all this but unless you won Top Fuel or Pro Stock or something, all the class history is just GONE.

A shame because this era of, as Dennis Wilson put it in 2-Lane Blacktop, the era of "It Might Be The Jets" is never to be repeated. Not the same in the computer era. Fun, and expensive, but not the same.

BTW I think this is Mueller's 58 Pontiac in K/SA:

I've guessed it as a Chieftan 2dr sedan, 370/310hp-FI.
Or was the 370/310-FI still legal in 1970? Not sure what else fits, and fits the picture too.
These Petersen pictures zoom pretty well so you can see detail.

Here's 1970 Indy Stock/Manual - the other 1970 Indy I think are posted here already.
