Which of those medium-riser motors was used by Jim Waldo to be the first in the tens?

Dwight Southerland · 11-05-2009, 07:51 AM

410 hp. At the time, the 2x4 engine was factored to 440.

There used to be baby blue powder blue something like that B\S fairlane wagon in Ky. I think he was from
around Louisville ,I saw it a Mt.Park, Clay City Ky.around 1986-87-88 was neat car didn't know the guys
name or if car is still around? Different subject I remember Corky Jordan Flatwoods Ky. bringing his fairlane to Mt.Park back around same years was awesome stocker back then I think he held B/S record
@10.87 in 1986 was called worlds fastest stocker back then. He would run Quick Sixteen bracket with it was cool seeing stocker run Q16.I heard Corky's car is sitting in garage I don't know when it was last ran.

Not the same car. I'm pretty sure. The last time I saw Charbonneau's wagon was in a farm feild in Chippewa Falls, WI back in 79. At the time the wagon was almost gone due to rust and I'm almost sure it was scrapped...so sad. I first got "involved" with this car in 72 when Clyde Birch purchased the car from Charby. My Dad was Clyde's "crew cheif" and I grew up and got hooked on drag racing ( I was 6 ) with this car. I was lucky enough to "help" Dad wax the big wagon. This car was kept in Dad's garage ....I couldn't wait to get home from school!
I was a very lucky boy and still am.....Thanks Dad!

Chris' wagon isn't Charby's but i'm not sure if it isn't the one RJ Sledge had? Very cool car and runs real well. Sure the 410hp hardtop may be a better fit in B/S but the wagon oozes class.

If you don't like Fords (hard for me to imagine!) what about Chris Barnes Max Wedge wagon that won the Div 6 race at Medford?

Just out of curiosity does any one have any pictures of Jon Hurst H/SA Ford wagon?

Many moons ago, I used to write the newsletter for the 409 chevy club of America. I used to send a newsletter to a Richard Charbonneau in Minnesota. Are you one and the same? I'd like to know!!
