We Took Tony’s Dad to the Street Races In His 442


We pulled the 442 out so we could take Tony’s dad out to the local meet and see if we can get some action on the streets.

  1. So much respect for Tony and family,I can not wait to show mommy and Daddy tomorrow morning when I see them for the weekend.god bless you all.

  2. This hits close to home. My favorite upload from ya'll yet. Great to see Tony's dad out enjoying the car, a nice cruise down memory lane, and reminiscing of his hay day. You are very fortunate to have these experiences and make these great memories.

    My brother had a 1969 Olds Cutless supreme. Yellow. 455 auto. Canadian car. Myself and my dad put a lot of time into the car along with my brother. My dad assembled and installed the engine. Ran like snot when dad was done with it. Dad had a stroke in 2020 which nearly took him from us. He cant do much these days. But, he was in the shop while I was installing my engine today. For the first time in a long time he helped with a couple nuts and bolts. Sure was nice to have him in the shop again. Even better to see him put his hands on a car again. He cant speak but the look on his face, the twinkle in his eye. Today was a great day.

    I dont know of any bond between a father and son better than cars.

    Today was a great day.

  3. Tony and his Dad cruz'n main together was so cool. In my day, the early to mid 1960's, cruz'n main looking to see who was out and cruz'n to be seen we called 'dragg'n tha gut'. Dunno why it was called that, it was a saying coined long before my time but we'd pick up our folks rotary dial phone, call our friends and simply,, "Hey Donny, I'm headed out to 'drag tha gut',, wanna bring your Chevy out, join in and see if we can get a race or two going?". Donny had a 1953 Chev, straight axle out of a Falcon pick up under the front, balanced and printed 283 punched to 301ci and a Muncie 4speed that for the day was pretty quick. Me? I had a '53 Ford, 6 cylinder, 3 speed on the column,, it was a dog.

  4. Tony's Dad's stories remind me of back in the day street racing. I had six different muscle cars before I turned 20, first car was really more of a cruiser that I street raced, 68 Mercury Cougar XR7, traded it for a K code 65 Fairlane Sport Coupe hardtop with a straight front axle and t-10 and 5.56 rear gear that would top out at 100 but get there really quickly. 75 Mustang 2 that I put a hi-po 289 with cam headers and torker intake that I cut hole in hood for carb to stick thru, embarrassed a lot of trans-am owners in that thing, Boss powered 70 Maverick that was undefeated with a 69 440 R/T charger and 70 Chevelle SS 396 among many victims. 1970 Torino Cobra, used to wind third gear to 97mph, beat a 70 Big block Corvette in that, the look on his face. The one I got just for I went in the service a 66 Mercury Cyclone GT with a 427 and it was the Holman and Moody edition with fiberglass hood, fenders and deck lid and aluminum bumpers, never did race it and sold it while in the service.
