He might have been basing his info on the results of past Cope India exercises where US F-15 pilots were defeated again and again by Indian pilots flying Migs.

Can't believe nobody mentioned Joe Garagiola whose Chrysler ads got the whole rebate thing started. "Buy a car. Get a check"

'65 Fury III. My grandfather bought it new.

We kids were the unlucky ones relegated to the middle position when the car was full. Our heads were below the top of the seat. No child safety seats, or even seatbelts, back then.

Our family had one of these when I was a kid. We'd sit in the rear-facing third seat and wave at the cars following us. Most people waved back.

Gary Killeen's from the 2010 Hot Rod Power Tour.

A nine seat wagon....with tailfins.

Oh, I guess you're right. Water IS poison and I guess I should should be more careful about the amount of it that I drink. Or maybe not.

Sorry. I just have this need to help people when they are clueless. I guess there's truth in the saying, "You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink."

By your interpretation, everything is poison and this simply isn't true as there is a clear distinction between the poisonous effects of unleaded gasoline and water. I suggest you take advantage of my kindness and educate yourself at the link I provided.

Drink a couple glasses of water and you don't die or even get sick. Let me know how that works out for you when you try the same with gasoline, even without the lead. Oh, that's right. You won't be able to let me know because you'll be dead.

1st Gear: Anyone who's worked with the government know it takes them FOREVER to get anything done.

History:

This story is misleading as the videos don't show any prototype vehicles being destroyed but only a couple of body shells. If you watch the videos on YouTube you'll see the following comment on video #2 indicating at least one was an early development shell that was probably worthless.

A modern version of the IMSA GTP Vette.

Here's a spy photo of the actual car.

I'm still hoping for a production version of this Dodge Demon.

In 1973, you could buy a new Duster 340 for $2800 equal to about $13.5k in 2010 dollars.
