Had a guy call me out for a race back in the day. He had a spanking new 78 Z28 , i had my old 71 Charger RT 440 Magnum. This guy had ridden in my car before and i dont know what the hell he was thinking. His camaro beat me off the line and he was ahead for about 75 yards. When i got good traction and hit 2nd gear , the race was over. I had to oull over and wait for him so i could laugh at him.

We loved our 72 Torino! Bought it in California in 1983, it had a functioning ram air kit on it. An old gear head at that time, hooked up a bypass to it. So when you stopped at a red light smoke would come out the hood scoop like a dragon !! lol Flick of a switch and boom you had smoke 💨 Worked better with certain weather conditions. It was gold with a black vinyl top, had a 351 Cleveland, dual exhaust, headers, total sleeper. Kids used to look in awe at this so called family car that looked awesome. One of the best grills and front ends ever, top 10 list for sure. Sure miss those days, right ?
