Back in the '80s, my neighbor had a '69 Dodge Dart GT with practically the same motor. Built 440 C.I., dual quads and a tunnel ram! Wheels and tires, too. That thing was a 9 second car (one time, LOL).

The guy who said the original wings were higher, I just pictured you guys making the wing a foot or two higher where it was way above the roof line so the car looks even more off

You two make a great team thank you for taking us along for the ride much love from New Zealand guy's

Time for the obligatory Sunday episode of _Sillier with Finnegan_ - a.k.a. "Georgia's Yeti Trolls the Local Car Show, Round #2" You ought to call that thing the General Sea - looks as if it was pulled out of one. Jokes aside, consider repairing the rusted torque boxes and rocker panels. Those door gaps remind me of the sag you find on convertibles. That ladder frame might not be connected to the original unibody, after all.

It's the Day-faux-na!!!

Funny having Caffeine and Octane at Towne Center Mall. 20 years ago, It was Caffeine & Octane every weekend and even weeknights on Barrett. I spent my teens & 20’s (I’m 38 now) on Barrett. It was our staging area for Lots of crazy times and memories. Cobb police would chase us around kicking us out of Starbucks, Galyans/Dicks, Sports Authority, US Play, Media Play, etc. weeknights were usually chill out at starbucks. We used to get about 4-6 cars to pace traffic and do rolling runs at 1am on 575 between Bells Ferry & hwy 92, get on at Chastain Rd, pace traffic through the curve, then as soon as you crossed the Hawkins Store rd bridge and it straightened up, that’s where you start running usually a 2nd gear pull up to about 100-120mph then get off at 92, turn around and do the same thing going southbound. Switches from Cobb to Cherokee county there in that stretch so it wasn’t patrolled much except occasionally GSP. Good times… I had my Turbo’d Honda Accord 😂🤣😂. Our “crew” actually got back together about 6-7 years ago for a “reunion” at Starbucks. We’re all married with kids now.

Y'all are living your best lives. Living vicariously through you. Keep it up! Great music and editing.

THANKS for the RIDE, since mine is COVID & COFFEE at least I got to mental shotgun. Best to you Scott 🏁

Excellent stuff, I would have pulled over immediately when I saw that velocity stack coming off in case the nut holding it on fell down into the motor. 😎

That's it. I have to take the 76 gto to a car show with a hidden camera ... that audio is killer. Thanks Mr. Finnegan. loved the vid as usual.

It is entertaining being on the inside and seeing how people not aware act around it. But I'd say the reactions were very positive for something that nobody would bother restoring anyway.

Just rewatching this episode because it’s been nagging me ever since I saw the episode where you introduced the car Finnegan. A few minutes into the show here and you mentioned something that made me realize where I’ve seen this car before. It was either the late eighties or the early nineties but I saw the car in person. It would’ve been in one of 3 places but most likely at the DuQuoin,IL Street Machine Nationals. The other locations would’ve been either St Louis for an NHRA or NMCA race or possibly at Indy during the US Nationals. What I remember about the car was it sounding really really strange when it was cruisin around. I did see it parked at some point in time at the same event with the doors open and hood off. You mentioned that you had to cut the rear crossmember to be able to put any kind of a driveshaft in it. That’s the wing car I remember seeing that they’d powered with a Briggs & Stratton for cruisin around the fairgrounds. I can’t remember the exact setup they used to turn the pinion flange on the rear diff. There were some T buckets around that were built up similarly. The T buckets had either a front mounted Briggs with a centrifugal clutch turning a driveshaft or they’d hide the Briggs in the back under the turtle deck. The cars with rear mounted engines ran either a belt or chain from the centrifugal to the pinion of the rearend where they’d mounted or welded their chain or pulley to the yoke. If I remember correctly, your car had a Wisconsin twin cylinder engine in it. It’s been too many decades ago to be absolutely positive how it was setup but I’m % 99.9 sure that your car is the one I remember. I’m thinking I remember seeing it in a magazine at some point in time when it was photographed in a row of wing cars. I do remember the car having Convo Pros on it also. Finnegan I apologize for the long comment but it’s been buggin me ever since you put up the first video where you introduced it to us. Dunno if this sheds any light on the past of your car but I tried. Thanks for the content 👍
