Another side of the coin are the Trans Am racing cars. Not Pro Stockers, I know, but I think they belong in this thread anyway. An article about Dan Gurneys Trans Am ´Cuda (Hot Rod Magazine, April 1970):

"69 Indy Nationals!!!! Did he get a prototype body from Dodge or what?"

This may answer Dave's question from earlier in the year, about when and where the new Challenger was first shown to the public.

Unless YOU know different...... :s017:

Forgive me for being stupid but what date did the Indy Nationals actually take place in 1969?
