Never thought I would get to talk about a Dodge Aspen on an Aero site?

My first hurrah into Drag racing was a 1976 Dodge Aspen with a very rare Weslake (Nascar development) engine already fitted.
The Dodge is long gone, stolen out of my Farm unit some twenty years ago!

Still have the engine thankfully but I think my 'old friend' Greg needs to tell us more about his Dodge Aspen!


Always dreamed of finding another and putting the Weslake in there... :2thumbs:

Have you still got it Greg???

Ray Evernham and I sold it a while back.
Too many irons in the fire, as they say.
I've never owned anything but a MoPar. Can you say that?

Under the F Body skin was the Gary Bettenhausen #6 Hemi 4 speed Daytona, hiding in plain view!   :coolgleamA:

They were too small to race in Nascar!

Having seen Kent's car, I can safely say that picture doesn't do it justice!  :2thumbs:
