Bangshift.com found the mother of home videos... the Daytona 500 pits before the race

the above stills from the video are to let you see just how damn cool a late 60's muscle car can be if made full race. Chevelle, Impala, Road Runner, Fairlane, Galaxie, Cyclone, Starliner... you can still get these cars for less than 15 thou in running condition and make a Nascar clone.

the Holman Moody prepped, Fireball Roberts 1963 Ford Galaxy #22... .. a museum stored - fresh off the track - race car

Q code, single 4 barrel, 427 with cast iron hi flow exhaust headers

If I could recall all that I was told by the owner, a Holman or Moody, I can't recall which... but a nice guy, he said this was beign neglected in a museum, the NASCAR museum I think, and it hadn't been maintained, kept up, not even properly stored for decades. So when a Holman Moody museum was started, they got their cars back... see, they hadn't sold them to the museums, just loaned them. http://www.holmanmoody.com/

Ray Evernham made a 64 Plymouth Belvedere just like the ones that won in NASCAR, in 1964 at the Daytona 500 and the NASCAR Grand National Championship

750 Hp, 4 speed, front and rear clips from a modern NASCAR race car, and fully adjustable suspension. The only thing it doesn't come with is a crew chief and a pit crew!

Net proceeds from the sale will go to Evernham Family Racing for a Reason, a foundation that is funding IGNITE, a new program and facility in Davidson, N.C. operated by the Autism Society of North Carolina.

 IGNITE enables adults with High-Functioning Autism or Asperger Syndrome to enjoy a better quality of life as valued members of the community in which they live and work.
