The Granny Goose II Modified Production 1969 Camaro

By Brian Lohnes

We’re lucky enough to spend lots of time at cool events either shooting video or photos of neat cars. During the 2009 Holley NHRA National Hot Rod Reunion, we saw a D/Modified Production 1969 Camaro called the Granny Goose II and immediately fell in love. Unfortunately for us, we were so busy we were not able to hunt down the car owners for information on this awesome machine. We didn’t make the same mistake in 2010.

Modified Production was an NHRA class that appeared in 1964 and was killed off in 1981. Along the way, racers used multitudes of combinations in several different classes. While the A and B/MP cars got lots of recognition because of their ability to throw big numbers up on the score boards, it is cars like the Granny Goose II which ran in the lower classes that people remember so fondly. Why? You listen to the 331ci small block spin to about ten grand on the starting line and tell us.

This particular car was restored to the condition you see it in now just after the turn of the millenium. It was destined to live it’s life as a show car until it was seen by current owner James Payne in 2005. He managed to buy the car and despite please from the former owner to leave it as a show car, Payne did the right thing and prepped it for the track. We’re very glad that he did because it would be wrong to have this awesome piece of history used only for power parking at car shows. Continue reading at BangShift.com

Luke just created this ’69 Dodge Charger ride page today. I’m generally not a huge fan of stuffed animals at car shows but thought this was pretty hilarious.

This was the #1 ride on CarDomain when I checked yesterday, and you can probably see why. From Ken’s ride page:

I did all the work myself in my garage except the final paint and the only time it’s been on a trailer was when I hauled it home the first day.

See all the pics!

Chugging along, the high power is available almost instantly thanks to twin turbos. Read more about the 1750 horsepower 1969 Camaro at Tampa Sports Car Examiner.
