1,500-Mile HEMI Superbird Has SERIOUS Drag Racing History

This extremely rare Hemi Superbird is a 1970's time capsule with an outstanding psychedelic paint job that's been in place since 1974. The car was a drag car from day one, running in the Super Stock E Automatic class, against the Ray Allen big block Chevelle convertible. Tim Richards drove the car, and it represented Karl Gould Chrysler Plymouth out of Vestel, New York. The car had a great 1970 season, winning its class at the 1970 NHRA Summernationals at US30 Dragway in York, Pennsylvania. It also raced on the big stage at the NHRA U.S. Nationals in Indy. The car didn't last long, as the Super Stock world was changing quickly. But it landed with another serious racer or in this case two racers...the Carpinet brothers took over the car and renamed it Infamy, erasing the Karl Gould lettering. From there, the car was painted white with custom striping, and then repainted again by Hank Z in 1974 under the ownership of Frank Obitz. The car then changed hands a few times and ultimately came out of hiding in 2014. The car was pieced back together with a period correct Hemi, and put on display at MCACN in Chicago. Since then, the car has once again changed hands and now belongs to Bob Jennings of Jennings Wing Cars. He plans to keep the '70s paint job and cool stance. The car has some great history and I got to see it in person at the NSRA Street Rod Nationals in Louisville, Kentucky. #mopar #Hemi #musclecar
