'61 Sunliner, the '62 lost the tail fins...

Cool car, wonder what was under the hood??? The Big Dog for '61 was the solid lifter, 390 375Hp... A 401Hp 3x2bbl setup was also available, but the intake, carbs and air cleaner was shipped in the trunk... Was dealer installed prior to delivery to customer...

Thanx for the correction. I was not sure of the year. I am used to the '63-'64 style.

Oh yea, was a great race, wouldn't it be cool if they would build some "classic" cup cars for these guys to drive. Loved the retro paint schemes they used.:bowdown:

In '62 it was a 406 FE with 3x2bbl carbs as the top engine correct?
