Long Time Mopar Fan

[HemiManDan]

I have been racing Mopars on and off since 1969. Lots of stories and of course lots of kill stories. Currently racing a vintage Studebaker Avanti that has been Hemi equipped since 1972. Many passes over 220 mph and the car has gone 252 mph. The car was even campaigned by Doug and Mike Cook (Doug "Cookie" Cook) for 12 years. Originally bought by Bill Burke of Hot Rod magazine fame (first guy to build and race a belly tank car). Looking to put a late or early Hemi in it and go racing again.

I will post some pics of my Belvedere Hemi car and more soon.

Welcome from sunny southern Wisconsin. Sweet Avanti.

Welcome aboard, looking forward to see some pictures. I'm sure there are some here that don't know the significance of Doug Cook, (Stone, Woods and Cook) !
