I saw this bit on the Speed (NASCAR) channel yesterday. Some interesting
historical footage. I was wondering whose car they filmed, Indiana plates.
Unfortunately, while it was a good example, it likely had at least an engine
transplant as it sported the later air cleaners. Am I the only one still
using the original little pancake filters? (you know, the ones better known
as gravel excluders....)
