No kidding? I love it. My Dad and his business partner Dennis swapped the big Pontiac that was in for a 426 Hemi early on. My memories are all of the Hilborn fuel injection stacks sticking up out of the hood. It was a great jungle gym! I've spent a lot of time at NED since the 70s. Not as much as I'd like to have of course... My brother is still a Tech Inspector there. He lives about 10 min away in Brentwood.

Still trying to track it down and see where it went back in the 80's. Old owner is checking to see if he can find it.

Great photos. I don't ever remember seeing one of these hauling a car on the road when I was a kid. I would have blown a fuse if I did.

There's a fix that I posted with links to modify your browser. It will allow you to see all the old Photobucket pictures on multiple forums. If you use Google Chrome or Mozilla as your browser, get the fix for Photobucket and see all the old pictures. Link to Yenko thread below.

Me too! I used to "blow a fuse" on less than that back in the early-1970s whenever I saw a race car being flat-towed or on a regular trailer usually on their way home from Raceway Park, Englishtown, NJ on Sundays.
