In the fall of '67 and spring of '68 my cousin Jim was having a good time taking all comers with his '67 390 Fairlane. Nobody could touch him until George C. showed up with his '68 302 Camaro. George blew Jim's doors off. Nobody thought that little motor would pull like that.
Another local guy,Archie bought a 340 Dart while he was working as a mechanic at the Mopar place. He worked on the car a bit and a couple of times a week he would gas up on the way home, then stop on the bridge near our house and practice his starts.
Loved the sounds of those small block v8s.
