This car came out of the mothballs to make it's public debut at Monterey Car Week. I spotted it during the Carmel-By-The-Sea Concours on the Avenue event and had to learn more about it. As it turns out, the car's owner has DEEP roots in Ford Racing history, as he is the nephew of famous drag racer Les Ritchey. He explained the rare features on the car, including the fiberglass hood (with tear d...
CLASS OF 1969 -- Super Cool Muscle Cars (and Trucks)
Переглядів 2163 роки тому
There's no doubt that the late 1960's and early 1970's gave us all an amazing platform to build upon. The cars and trucks of the muscle car era were awesome straight out of the factory but if you really wanted to turn heads, you could bolt on some bigger tires and wheels, and other aftermarket parts. I found three awesome examples of lightly modified muscle cars (and trucks) and wanted to show ...

    Hi if possible I would love to know more about where les ritcheys vehicles are? Or more history? Or memorabilia willing to sell. Les was my uncle that I have never met. I am on the hunt to learn who the gentlemen was as well that is a nephew as well to les. My dad (his brother) never spoke much about him but hung his clippings In frames everywhere, he also raced his car at fontana and never lost In it. Growing up he never wanted to talk about it. So here my family is today trying to purchase his cars, memorabilia or any stories to tell. He sounds like he was a stud and kind and funny. Please help me find my answers thank you

      That claim was probably stated by the person(s) doing the restorations on those 3 to get more money. No doubt especially at a mecum auction there was paperwork involved that stated in small print I'm sure that "info is assumed correct at time of auction" just to cover their asses when it's found out there's more of them after being sold as the triple Crown Jewels 😂

      In '66 it was , for '67 Chevrolet pulled the Holley off in favor of a Quadrajet . The '66 cars would out run their brand new star of the show , the Camaro and management didn't care for that one little bit . So first they detuned the engine and that didn't work so well for them so they pulled the plug on the option in a Nova , it was still available in a Chevelle .
