    This'66 belongs to Judy and Ray Zielinski from Villa Ridge, Missouri. It was purchased six years ago out of a field and was nothing more that an empty shell. The husband and wife team did a great job transforming it into this stunner you see here. One of the most notable mods was the fabrication of the Stinger hood, which looks right at home with the bodylines of the '66 and covers up the 496 big-block with a ton of style.

    The St. Louis show was the first time Doug Schwartz's '55 had hit the track, complete with original 265 small-block power and a four-speed manual. The clutch fried on the car's first pass, but undaunted, Doug worked to fix it and kept on racing.

    This plastic fantastic second-gen belongs to John Franklin from Hannibal, Missouri. John bought the car back in 1980 when it was totally stock. He had all intentions of building it into a drag car and started with a big-block swap and a back half. Well, John told us,
