I LOVE the look of these old Pro Stockers. They're the ultimate hotrods for me. Low- tech by today's standards but making brutal horsepower. 8) 8) 8)

I've been trying to capture the look and feel of these cars as I've been gradually rebuilding mine. Sort of retro Pro Stock for the street. :D

After looking at these pics, it is obvious what my father was thinking when he chopped the hell out of the rear wheel wells on MINE...

They ARE awesome. Love seeing the roots of MoPar. :D :wink:

Wonder what times on average they would have been running. (Pro-Stock)
My guess would be mid-low 9's for most, and the occasional 8 second run.
