Whose wheelstanding 68 is this one?

[bull]

  A local guy posted this pic on his craigslist ad but based on the banner along the track I assume it was taken in or near Bakersfield, Ca.

Isn't that Ron's?   

[bull]

I did think of that but then someone probably would have told us if was able to get the front end four feet off the ground? Besides, he probably doesn't travel to California too often to drag race.

Tries do not look wrinkled at all, could it be chopped. . If not chopped, damn impressive.

[RIDELIKEHELL]

what a cool picture I don't think it's Rons but maybe with that  new motor he got it is him

Would the tires be wrinkled if it was on its way back down?

[nvrbdn]

he would have done a great job on the reflection on a photo shop.

oh snap dominic torretto at the track I thought he street races only? 

[greenpigs]

I think it is legit.

It looks like it was on its way up at launch, front suspension is fully extended and some space between wheelie bars and pavement. If it was on the bars then the tires would wrinkle I bet.

Nice Charger even if I got it wrong!

I see tread on those hoosier's.
Would a dot sidewall wrinkle?

I thought Ron sold that Charger to buy an A-body.?..??

[firefighter3931]

Nope, not my car  The Black Pig is waaay too noseheavy to get that much air. 

I believe that car is a stocker based on the west coast and have seen pics of it before. From what i remember reading, the driver is female 



Ron

Not that Ron. Firefighter Ron.

[greenpigs]

The other Ron is dead to me.

I thought he sold the A body and has some GM ride?

Anyways, he had a 499 with all the speed shit in a Summits catalog and it wasn't much quicker than the REAL DEAL Ron's 446 Black Pig.

If we're talking about the same guy, his name is Jim, not Ron.  Only guy I know who lost weight (off himself) so his car would go faster.  Username is the "shift on 8" sign, what I call cat's butt   *

Cool picture!

I thought Ron sold that Charger to buy an A-body.?..??

so which of those "A rated bodies" did he purchase?? or could he only afford to rent them for the night??

[bull]

Rental. And he got a three for one deal thanks to Photoshop.

[firefighter3931]

Same car from a slightly different angle

Gotta see more of this car       any more pics?

[Darkman]

Something doesn't look right about the rear wheel (driver's side) in the first pic. It looks like a wheel from an open wheeler or dragster (just my )

[67Charger440]

I was 1 car ahead of him in Tech at March Meet last year...  Beautiful car and WAY quick.

You hope when a front end is up that high they don't get scared and let off,lots of damage !!!!!!!

What could the driver possibly be looking at? All he can see is sky. He has to be thinking and praying for it to go straight. He would not even see if it was heading for the wall. Has to be a thrill like no other.

I tried googling the car, didn't find anything on it yet but I did find this; Cool vintage 68 charger racer:
