Musclecar Photographs mrays
I should call this musclecars and more, but that's too wordy. Most of my photos are of musclecars, but I have some photos of some pretty cool modified vehicles and some fast street legal racecars as well so I might include a few of those. I have literally hundreds of photos, so I'll just post the best cars and photos. I hope you guys enjoy them.
Here are a few musclecars from Super Chevy Indy 2008: E. Coffel's L34 4 speed 66 Chevelle SS. This is a Gold Class car that he showed for a few years on the Super Chevy circuit in the Midwest. The car is in storage now and he has a 67 Chevelle SS street machine that he brings to local cruise-ins occasionally. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...2-img_0280.jpg The Landis' L34 4 speed 70 Chevelle SS. This is another Gold Class car that they showed for a couple of years at the Super Chevy shows in Indy and Norwalk. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...e_ss_white.jpg https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...4-img_0301.jpg The Fields' L34 automatic 69 Chevelle SS. He won the Chevelle Stock class that year. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...5-img_0249.jpg The Brown's L34 69 Chevelle SS. I've seen this car at a number of Super Chevy and Goodguys events. I believe it was at MCACN as well. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...6-img_0344.jpg B. Adcock's 71 Z/28 was a numbers matching 4 speed car with documentation. He won the 2nd Generation Camaro Stock class that year. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...7-img_0316.jpg The Myshock's 73 Z/28. He was the R/U in the 2nd Generation Camaro Stock class at Indy then won at Norwalk that year. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...8-img_0321.jpg |

Re: Musclecar Photographs mrays

The Crowder's 71 pickup is a factory big block truck and is one of the nicest I've seen of it's generation.

Niesley's 67 Chevelle is an L34 with a 4 speed. This car was featured in the June 2008 issue of Muscle Car Review. I believe this is an original owner car. It won Best Street Chevelle that year. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...8-img_0267.jpg S. West's 72 Chevelle SS was another regular at Super Chevy Indy and Joliet. It has a 462 with a Street & Performance EFI setup. It won Best Modified Chevelle, Best Chevelle and Outstanding Engine of the show. This is another car that was always detailed to the max. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...6-img_0268.jpg The Osborn's 63 Nova came all the way from NC.

I don't know anything about this 61 Corvette other than that it ran high 9's. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...1_corvette.jpg The Alford's sleeper 66 Chevy II.

This car has been around since the 60's. I remember seeing it at Super Chevy Indy in the mid 80's when it had a big block with Hilborn injection and NOS. When this picture was taken it had a nitrous injected 632 and was running high 6's. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...4-img_0295.jpg |

Re: Musclecar Photographs mrays
Here are a few muscle cars from the Super Chevy Show in Joliet IL in 2008.
C. Ragland's 69 Chevelle SS L34 4 speed car with chambered exhaust. This is a Gold Class car that was restored back in the mid 90's and was a Super Chevy Show regular for years. This is one of the nicest 69 Chevelles that I have ever seen and that chambered exhaust sounds sweet. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...4-img_0575.jpg https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...5-img_0572.jpg The Clinton's 69 El Camino SS L78 4 speed with a bench seat.

Re: Musclecar Photographs mrays

The Germann's 66 Chevy II with a small block. It had Ram Jet EFI and a bolt on front clip. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...5-img_0555.jpg R. Watson's Pro Engineered 66 Chevy II. This car was featured in Super Chevy back in the 90's, but had a few upgrades since then. It has a front hinged hood and I believe suicide doors as well. It also has a supercharged small block with a 4 speed. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...6-img_0509.jpg The Bartoli's 69 Camaro had an LS-6 for motivation and a custom interior with a 00 Camaro dash.

Re: Musclecar Photographs mrays
Here are a few race cars from the same event.

This car was featured in the February 1997 issue of Super Chevy. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics..._malibu_ss.jpg J. Ridings' 71 Chevelle SS is another very clean racecar. It had a naturally aspirated 582 and ran high 8's. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...elle_ss_bb.jpg This 68 Camaro had a naturally aspirated big block and ran high 8's. A few years prior to this photo it had a big block with NOS and ran 8.40's. They were making a Saturday night T&T pass and stood it up on the back bumper with all 4 wheels off the ground. I thought it was going to end up on it's roof, but the parachute hit the ground and kept it from blowing over. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...6-img_0510.jpg This is one of the nicest early 80's Z/28's I've seen. It had a big block and ran low 9's. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...7-img_0501.jpg |

Re: Musclecar Photographs mrays
Here are few modified cars from the same show.
R. Massow's 55 210 has a 383 with an M22. This is one of the cleanest 55's around. Whenever he showed up he usually won the modified Tri-5 class. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...210_maroon.jpg The Pederson's 56 won the Best Modified and Best Truck award. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...pickup_red.jpg https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...ickup_red1.jpg The McLaughlin's 56 had an LT-4. He was the Runner-Up in Modified to the truck above. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...up_yellow1.jpg Bob Meiring's 63 Corvette won Best Pro Street. This is an original 63 Corvette with a 632 and it ran in the high 7's.

Re: Musclecar Photographs mrays
Here are a couple of race cars from the same event.
Sweet 67 Chevy II that ran mid 10's with a 383 and an NOS plate system. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...va_maroon2.jpg https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...va_maroon1.jpg A 67 Chevy II SS with a 440 that was running high 9's without the NOS system. It was a fresh engine and he hadn't sprayed it yet, but was expecting 8's on the bottle. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...ova_ss_red.jpg https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...va_ss_red1.jpg Nice 71 Chevelle SS with a big block and NOS. Since this car didn't have a roll bar he was only allowed to run 11.50's or slower so he kept shutting it down early. Finally at the end of the day he ran it out the back door with a mid 10 second pass. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...4-img_1452.jpg |

Re: Musclecar Photographs mrays
Here are a couple of muscle cars from the Super Chevy Show at Norwalk OH in 2009.
The Rogers' 57 Bel Air conv. with a dual quad 283. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...el_air_red.jpg The McCracken's 66 Biscayne L72. This was an original owner car with 19K miles and has it's original drivetrain. It was a race car early in it's life and had just recently been restored. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...6_biscayne.jpg This is J. Duer's 67 L79 Chevy II. It is documented and I believe it has it's original drivetrain. It was a gold class car and has been to MCACN several times. It was featured in the March 2010 issue of Musclecar Enthusiast. This is 1 of 2 known 67 L79 Chevy II's that are documented. They were both built in June of 1967. The other is Grenada Gold with a black vinyl top. It is owned by a collector in the Phoenix area and was being restored the last I knew. R. Hoeft also has a 67 L79 Chevy II that I believe is legit. However, his was built early in the 67 model year and has the 350 horse version of the L79 like the 66's had. His car was at MCACN this past year and there were some photos of it recently in Muscle Car Review with some of the other cars in his collection. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...a_ss_turq1.jpg https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...a_ss_turq3.jpg |

Jack Duer's 67 L79 Chevy II is possibly the best restored car I have ever seen. All NOS or OE stuff. I believe it is sold now and living in AZ. Mike |
Re: Musclecar Photographs mrays

Jack owns First Choice Auto Body in Elkhart, IN and is one of the best paint and body guys in the area. He has painted atleast 6 Gold Class cars and has one of the nicest 69 Chevelle Pro Street cars I have ever seen. It was just featured on the January 2015 issue of RPM Magazine.

This is R. Vanderwoude's 67 Chevy II SS. It had a 448ci big block and ran 7.70's. This is definitely my favorite Chicago OSS car. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...va_maroon1.jpg https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...ova_maroon.jpg J.

Re: Musclecar Photographs mrays
Here are some race cars from the same event.
Sweet 63 Chevy II with a 540 on NOS that ran 8.80's. This is one of my favorite first gen Chevy II race cars. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...1-img_2618.jpg https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...2-img_8189.jpg I posted one of this 66 Chevy II before, but this is about as low and mean as they get. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...3-img_2536.jpg Clean 67 Chevy II SS had a 434 small block and ran low 10's. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...4-img_2613.jpg Nice 69 Nova SS with a big block ran high 8's. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...5-img_2588.jpg The Gambino's 69 Camaro had a big block and ran high 9's. Apparently he didn't trust the factory hood latch. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...6-img_2535.jpg Another big block high 9 second 69 Camaro. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...7-img_2564.jpg The Marcellus & Borshe "Winged Express" driven by M. Boyd. This is a recreation with some modern upgrades and it ran 7.20's @ over 200. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...8-img_2596.jpg The Guasco & Richey "Pure Hell" 32 Bantam. This car ran mid 6's @ 230+. These guys were way more fun to watch than a modern Top Fuel dragster. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...9-img_2599.jpg |
Re: Musclecar Photographs mrays
Mid 6's @ 230mph(!) with a short wheelbase like that must be an incredibly scary ride, whew.
|
Re: Musclecar Photographs mrays
Didn't NHRA outlaw Wild Willy and the boys driving the AA/FA cars??
|
Re: Musclecar Photographs mrays
According to the Pure Hell Fuel Altered website the best time for the car is a 6.19 @ 238. The picture above is an updated version of the original car and it has a longer wheelbase than the original.
