Launches like this made Brian
Sharp’s Indiana-based Hemi-powered SS/D ‘66
Belvedere wagon a crowd favorite; first-round loss in
class was long forgotten after semi-final finish on Sunday.
|
“The Other Woman” Lives! Jeff Milward’s
mega-inch ‘64 Savoy proves that half the show of
the MNSSA is in the waterbox. |
Don Miller’s almost totally
stock-appearing SS/F ‘64 Polara wagon includes Jetsons-style
luggage rack and hatch handles; redlight in class final
stopped Indiana behemoth from more 12.30/108 charges.
|
Fabled Rettig Brothers’ California SS/C ‘64
Fury is kept show-quality by Ohioan John Comstock; fourth-round
loss in class was only good for a semi-final finish (!)
and second-round foul on Sunday didn’t help. |
Living Legend (just ask him!)
Dave Duell switched the equally historic “Drag’n
Wag’n” C/FX ‘64 Belvedere wagon into
SS/A and hit 9.90s with 4800-pound beast.
|
Vehicle names are mandatory in MNSSA racing. John Grinwald’s
“Asphalt Elephant” ‘62 Dodge Dart has
an apt moniker; torque produced by Wisconsin A/FXer is
beyond words. |
Don Baierl’s Minnesota SS/A ‘64 Dodge 330
lost in class semis to Wilsher’s Belvedere but exquisite
black paint completely devoid of decals or lettering made
it one of the cleanest SS entries.
|
Roger Webb’s push-button automatic-equipped ‘62
Belvedere still houses 413 wedge power; torquing SS/A
entry was one of the most exotic in attendance. |
