I've been retired since 2011 and built a Lionel Train empire as you can see on my channel. Raced a dragster with Mike Harnack for 5 years, sadly Mike died in September of 2022.
David, Hi, how do you know Gordon? This was amazing for him to see this. This was the year before we got married, and it will be 57 years this year for us.
@@dottiekettman5879l used to go to the drags with Tony and Mike Lewis, Mike raced his 60 Impala. Ronny Cox used to race his 65 Dodge Coronet and he was from Lemont. I remember you being with Gordon at the strip and helping out. I don't know where the connection came from but maybe Tony knew Gordon.
That's my mom and dad standing by the 64 chevy at the end!
Do your parents first names start with D and G?
Absolutely! Trust me I know it's them!
Dad still has the trophy that's on the car!
@@spinman28 does he still have the car?
@cavemangarage no he sold it

Is that your 64?
No it is not mine.
I ask because I met a gentleman in Bolingbrook with that exact same 64 wheels and all and he said he bought it new..
That 64 impala belonged to someone I knew named Gordon who lived in Lemont Illinois and was a 340hp 4 speed.
340hp 409.
