"Rocket's" MoPar Restoration in Washington
Our next stop was at Rocket Restoration, where the owner and general manager Mike Volz welcomed us. Rocket deals with MoPar restorations and they are the only place next to Seattle where you can find numbers matching vintage MoPar like this 1964 Max Wedge Sports Fury, which is one of only 11 made! Mike explained to us the different flavors 8 3/4 rear axles come in. Thanks to that we are now able to pick what will suit our road race application best, an 8 3/4 with diagonal roller axle bearings and adjustable preload. Mike gave us a few small parts and will now shop for such an 8 3/4 as well as a sturdy 833 four speed. Thank you, Mike! We count on you to help us get to 160 mph on the Mulsanne straight next year!
Our Charger parked on its trailer right outside of Rocket Resto in Olympia, WA.
I'm also very happy that Don has taken this challenge ! The Charger will be on the Nürburgring for try-outs in May 2006.
