Bitchin' Plymouth Savoy (I think) was minding it's own business, when some young punk Mustang smacked it up alongside the back bumper. Things got UGLY fast.


So, the camera didn't get an image of what the nose of the Mustang looked like, but, since he was the dumb ass running into someone who was parked, and obviously large enough to see over the dash board, no sympathy here.



The hit was not recorded, just the yelling afterward. I bet someone out there did record this from another angle, if you see that, send me a link please

the only FM3 1970 Fury III known to exist was at the 2025 Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals


although it has a fender tag that indicates "special paint" and "special order," the main tag lists the paint's FM3 code. That's unusual because special-paint factory cars usually have the 999 code.

The one-off paint job also includes a white-painted top. This is a rare feature on any 1970 Fury because they were usually ordered with vinyl roofs.

a 68 Road Runner that is destined for Pikes Peak... how do I know? I talked to the owner/driver/pilot/awesome guy, and he's got one hell of a story - and a cooler job. He's on the Pikes Peak tech crew at the start of the race!


Richard and his buddy Ben, both grew up with a 68 383 4 speed Road Runner... how unreal is that? But their dads also both died when these guys were young. Tragic, and just unreal coincidence. Now they have partnered on this Road Runner to race on Pikes Peak next year, June 21, 2026

Ben's father passed away in 2023 three days before he was set to race for the first time at Pikes Peak. 

The first car he built with his dad was a 68 Road Runner and when Richard asked him if he could drive any car in Pikes Peak race, what would be? 

Ben responded "a road runner " 

Since Richard's father also had a Road Runner, things got really interesting. Richard lost his father in the Oklahoma City bombing and had been holding on to his dad’s car ever since. And both of their dad's cars were 68 383 4 speed cars!


That day the idea was born to build it for Pikes Peak. With some amazing help, the Road Runner was built in only 94 days to make SEMA. 

The team at Apex Auto Works absolutely crushed the build.




Richard's hoping to get Isky to sign that decal, it's been on the car forever... I hope he takes the window off the car and finds Isky and gets it autographed! 





I'm loving the wing, and how it attaches! When you figure that adding a wing is going to damage the original body, or the trunk lid, and try to figure out a way to get one on a classic Mopar without damaging anything? Brilliant

Starting with a Nascar chassis, removing 208 pounds of lead ballast in the frame, dropping the body of his dad's 68 Road Runner over that race car chassis, and getting the result that Plymouth was trying for in 1968 - a car ready for racing on the Nascar / Grand National tracks
