\"#28<\/a> <\/p>\n

From time to time, well preserved former NASCAR glories surface here and there. This one has a 1974 Dodge Charger body on a late 60s or very early 70s Petty chassis. It might have well been a Superbird, but only that car can tell!<\/p>\n

\"#28<\/a>
Where once a 426 HEMI bellowed, now a small block resides. This could indicate that it was raced upo until 1977, when the body was still elligible.<\/p>\n

\"#28<\/a> <\/p>\n

\"#28<\/a> <\/p>\n

\"#28<\/a> <\/p>\n

\"#28<\/a>
It looks like the restrictor plate is still under the Holley carburetor. However, this Holley does not look like a Grand National piece, but more something from a late model.<\/p>\n

\"#28<\/a>
A peak of the interior, where you can see the typical Petty crossmember. It looks like the interior was red in its day.<\/p>\n

\"#28<\/a>
Pop riveted inside door panels could be a hint to the late sixties origin of this MOPAR.<\/p>\n

\"#28<\/a>
Three bar headrest: another hint to Petty Enterprise origin!<\/p>\n

\"#28<\/a>
The front of the chassis looks newer. The original was probably replaced after a crash.<\/p>\n

\"#28<\/a> <\/p>\n

\"#28<\/a> <\/p>\n

\"#28<\/a>
Drum brakes in the front indicate that it might have well been a super speedway car!<\/p>\n

\"#28<\/a>
Now who had #28 in Grand National or Winston Cup or ARCA in 1977 ?<\/p>\n

\"#28<\/a>
The typical squirrel wheel cooler for the rear end or transmission.<\/p>\n
