I read on this Web site's page about Dick
Landy's 1964 Dodge at the 1964 Nationals.
I qualified fourth in the finals that year
and Landy beat me in round two of the finals
that year. I owned and drove the 618 SS/A
1964 Plymouth Mayflower V. |

The Plymouth held the NHRA record for et and mph, set in Phoenix Alabama.
My mechanic at the time was H. L. Shahan.
I also owned Hayden Profitt's 1963 wedge, another 1964 wedge and a 1965.
Kenny Salter, Don Nicholson's old mechanic, tuned the '65.
We raced all over in 1963, 1964 and 1965, had factory sponsorship on the 1965 and partial
sponsorship on the record holder car. I was 14, 15, and 16 at the time and raced out of Dickinson, TX.
The Plymouth Mayflower V is now restored to mint condition.
I am hoping to find any old pictures or film clips of my racing.
Can anyone help me out? Any help is appreciated! Please
e-mail me. Thank you!
Thanks Hank!
Quite fun for a teenager!
Hopefully someone reading this Web page will have some old pictures taken of the Plymouth Mayflower V racing to send to you!
