A990 superstock Plymouth trivia
above photo from http://draglist.smugmug.com/Drag-Racing/2010-York-Musclecar-Madness/12886056_HLL43/3/930442314_XDG4d#!i=930442314&k=XDG4d
above photo from http://stores.ultimatediecastmusclecars.com/Detail.bok?no=55
the trivia.. this was one of only 3 A990 known to still exist with a 4 speed, 833 trans
It was the winner of the (Tulsa Oklahoma )World Nationals in 1967.. and was 2 years old. Obsolete by most opinions of drag racers, but beat the factory racers in the newest lightweight cars, with the newest most expensive trick parts. Grumpy Jenkins, Sox and Martin, etc etc etc were not the champs in 1967, it was a couple guys you've never heard of in a 2 year old car that was getting by on pity parts from friends and fans, Like George Hurst who gave them a shifterand line lock, and they won the largest purse to that point for Super Stock $10,000
Learned about this story in the Oct 2012 Mopar Muscle magazine

Mopar Muscle cars from all over the pits at Mopars at the Strip 2012, perhaps the best place I've been to get your fill of Mopars of street and strip, stock and Super Stock
Even new Charger Super Bees
Plexi glass over the grill area
What the hell? When did a Barracuda get a half vinyl top? The Gran Sport model? I don't know, it looks terrible
I love the Mooneyes on the headlight covers. Awesome
Worst of the Road Runners, a 76 or 77 I think, and this one has had a hard life in the sun
I don';t remember ever showing how some of the last hood ornaments had the engine displacement facing the driver
Supercharged slant six. Hmmm must be a power to weight or class break thing
most down home small town sponsor advertising I've seen
