Re: 64 racer down under
I found another vid where they interviewed the owner driver.
He's 65 or so my guess having fun. Was complaining the engine
wouldn't run past 7200 that day, usually 7600 at thd end of the straight.
Mine can keep up to a stock 289 ,,, in my dreams.

Re: 64 racer down under
its a pretty impresive car & he drives it well, I have known him for a while, he has just pulled out of that racing bracket recently, i think it might have been getting a bit expensive, a few years ago he broke an axle at the Sydney track in testing, he rang me to see if I had a spare, so I dropped my complete 8" diff out of my Comet to the track, they fitted it & missed qualifying so started rear of grid & finished 5th, he won the next couple of heats, & set lap record, John
