Here's the Agajanian car, from a Dec. 1966 Popular Hot Rodding. Darts make handsome altered wheelbase cars. Fuel-injected 63 wedge is set back under the cowl. Classic homemade AWB.

A giant of a good guy

Sept. 9, 1966
West Virginia
I found a guy who had some pics of Wallace taken in 1966 in Georgia. One of them, of a wheelstand, looked strange because there were no spectators in it. After the race, the guy was photographing Wallace's car in the pits, and Pee Wee asked him if he had gotten some good shots. To make sure, Wallace told the guy where to go stand, and he fired up the Virginian and uncorked a huge wheelie for him on the empty track. Never happen now.
Results tomorrow.
