John Uzbasic's 1937 Chevy Coupe
John Uzbasic was raised in Northern Wisconsin , then in 1979 he moved to Hawaii, where he worked multiple jobs just to afford to live there. Even back in 1979 it was expensive. So basically all he did was work with really no outside life. John said that some years passed when he met two individuals that ended up to be good friends, Roy and his wife Edie. They were friends for some time and it was a surprise that after a number of months he shown John his race car. At that time, he didn’t give it much thought because he wasn't really interested in racing at that time in his life. Fast forward about 2-3 years, Roy asked him a number of times to check him out Drag Racing, John finally agreed to meet him at the track. He said he got to the track early and jumped on the bleachers and waited for the event to start. ...
Lee Smith's "Haulin-Hemi" A/FX Belvedere
Durring a ban from NASCAR during the 1965 season. The Plymouth AFX program was created to maximize the potential of the 426 Hemi engine in straight line acceleration competitions. The AFX class was Factory Experimental , the A was the largest engine displacement class.

Anthony Biella's 1971 Plymouth Fury
In 1969, Chrysler redesigned the C-Body platform to incorporate its new Fuselage styling that transformed it into a much sleeker design. The new C-Body design saw Chrysler ditching the cab forward look of the early-to-mid 1960's in favor of a more muscular silhouette mimicking the muscle cars of the era. By no means were these heavy weight sedans and coupes intended to be muscle cars, but some owners took matters into there own hands. This 1971 Plymouth Fury is owned by Anthony Biella. Like most of us Anthony fell in love with cars at a young age, he grew up working at his family's shop, Capital Discount Muffler in Islip Terrace, NY. He would go to work with his father and they would always be working on Mustangs & Firebirds, his father owned a 65 Mustang and his uncles owned 68 & 69 Firebirds. Anthony enjoyed going to car shows with his father, there he could experience the sights and sounds and even the smells of high-performance cars...
