Is there one car from your past that you'd give anything to destroy in a derby? Maybe a clunker that you or your family owned. For me, it was our family car when I was 5. I just saw my first derby on TV and knew we had to derby our car, a '64 Belair. from then on, I wanted nothing more thn to see that car mangled beyond recognition. Of course, it never happened. I know 64 belairs dont make the best derby cars, but I'd still like to get my hands on it and tear the h-ll out of it. What is the one car you want to destroy just for the fun of it?

my parents owned a 73 imperial when i was about 10. i remembered riding with my dad to take it to the junkyard and he traded it for a 70s ford f-100. damn that car would have been fun to wreck.

I would have loved, to derby a old Packard. Something like a 57 wagon. They just always seemed like a tank looking at them.

car i most want to derby would be a perfect body 64 crown coupe imperial with a convertible frame
but as far as a car from the past, it would have to be one of the many derby cars that use to come to my dad's shop, he use to sponsor derby cars back when it was still a big thing around here, there are 2 that really pop to mind, the first car would have to be the car that he had sponsored "first derby i ever saw" which was a 74 impala, i use to play in that thing, and all the next car would have to be the 61 imperial that won at the monsterjam 2 nights in a row, i loved that car, and got pretty p/o when they crushed it, i was about 8-9 years old and i told him i wanted that thing to derby. man

I would like to run another 66 or earlier Imperial. I have run a 66 and a 62 and both were fun runs. I dont agree with the 80up races here now because old iron was more runs per car.

i want to run a edsel, just something about them.also would like to run a suicide lincoln,had a '65 but sold it.the guy told me he wanted to restore it then ran it in the same derby i was in! not that i cared had a pretty good idea it would end up there anyhow,besides i made money on it and it was his first derby so even with a good car he had little Chance of winning. ;D

Matt, You've got some good chrome pieces on both the wagon and the Linc. And other parts. If you sell them, you should make some of you money back.

Ok, this isn't a car from my past, or anything, but I'd really get a kick out of destroying a Rolls Royce. Why? Because it's something you just never see! lol Besides, I'd like to have the MONEY you'd have to have to afford to do it! hehehe
