Yes. I believe the number 1 car was used. Number 2 was the camera car. There were 3 cars built for Two-laned Blacktop. One of the cars was taken to Irwindale Race Track where it ran 10:90's. Then they drove it down Van Nuys Blvd. Saw it on Van Nuys.

It was stored on the Universal Lot until A.G. Then it was painted black, front bumper added and a cover for the rear of the interior. The A.G. car was bought and a stock front end was put on. Crushed red velour interior. Cars looks terrible now.

I read somewhere, the black 60' Chevy had a small block. Needs some serious chassis tuning........

Wow, I had to look way back to find this one.

I think this is my favorite picture thread of all time.
I wish I had more time to post, but I'm busy building one of these.

Good job everyone, absolutly loved the pictures.
Cant wait to see who wins.

No but I think I've got a good burnout video somewhere. Let me look in my files.

This one was owned by "Gotcha", a pinstripper from Van Nuys, Ca.
It had a Big Block Ford. It is currently or has been restored. I believe it's in Northern California now.

He was also president of a street racing club called "RACE ?".
