Travis Tuki Hess Gorgeous 1964 Dodge Hemi 426 NHRA Stock Eliminator Bucky Jason Line Performance
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
When professional automotive painters build their own race cars you know the outcome is going to be aesthetically pleasing to say the least. The West Virginia based father and son team of Bucky and Travis Hess is no different and definitely knows how to insert performance into the mix as well! I caught up with Travis at Maple Grove Raceway's longstanding Pennsylvania Dutch Classic to learn more about the car.

Great guy. The Hess family has produced some fantastic cars over the years. When I was a kid every auto parts store and speed shop sold those steering wheels. LOL! I noticed shipping weights have changed several times over the last 20 years. Mine has changed three times in 18 years. (??) Thanks Bobby.
Great interview. Gotta like how calm Travis is. That pit is top of the food chain. Dig how the car is built, especially the seats. No denying that paint either.
Beautiful car awesome video
Thanks for the fun and informative video!
Great interview Bobby. Beautiful car and a talented painter.👍
Stock eliminater with a roll cage yesssssss👍

Your interviews are great. I'm beginning to think that I know all the drivers in Stock / Super Stock.
Had the pleasure to work with Bucky and Travis years ago, such a down to earth wonderful family!!!

Tuki is a very soft spoken guy. I could barely hear him! Boy that paint job is definitely a late 60’s deal. Arlen Vanke (Akron Arlen) used to run Hemi Cuda’s back in 68-69 painted by Gregg. This ‘64 looked like one of Vanke’s old cars!
Great car, great interview, great paint...
Enjoyed!!!!!!!
another Great interview, Thank you for sharing ! wow it turns blah blah RPM hehe, Maybe for next interview with Super Stock AH. you could talk about rule change for SS/AHemi, letting them use Rack And Pinions and ask whether or not that is an improvement long needed etc.

My only criticism here is the that car was never sold to the public back in the day with the "Nascar" Hemi.

@@gregsalmon8486 The Crossram Hemi has to run SS/BA, I think they allowed this to open up competition, Jerry Stein an I have talked about this, and he feels there are some politics involved, car is fast for sure, but it is still a bracket race in the eliminations.
The world is ProTrans and ATI .
