Notes: Seaton's first all-glass car. Round-tube Logghe chassis replaced "too flexy" square-tube frame of old A/XS Corvair. One-piece fliptop weighed in at 1880 pounds. Aluminum-headed 427, Turbo-hydro, 9" Ford rear, 3.51:1 gear, Detroit Locker. American Rodding 9/68 feature said that when the car nabs "World's Fastest Chevy" title, longtime "Shaker" decklid inscription "Chevy Will Rise Again" will be revised to "Has Risen." | Terry Hedrick replaced longtime Seaton driver Del Heinelt in mid-season. (Sadly, Heinelt died shortly afterward, shoeing Larry Coleman's blown Mustang when it went airborne at the '67 Nationals.) Listed times from nearly new car at Indy '67. Confirmed 8.23/180.72, 8.22/177.16, and 8.02/182.18 from 11/26/67 OCIR Manufacturers Meet. - RT | Terry was at Houston in October for a best of three match race against Nick Revon. Hedrick easily won the first two races with times of 8.83/173 and 8.90/163. Nick had motor problems and was unable to run the third race, so Terry soloed with an 8.24/181.08. Shortly after that, he was at Fremont for its third annual exhibition Car Championships. Hedrick was running well; he even stopped the strong Mustang of Tommy Grove in the semifinals with an 8.55/176.55. He faced the newly supercharged Comet of Ed Schartman in the final and lost to the Comet's 8.08. His next stop was at Irwindale for its experimental Stock Invitational race. Unfortunately, he lost there to Ronnie Runyan in the opening round. | Best NHRA national event times of 7.942/181.44 at Indy 67. MPH Manufacturers Meet, Orange County CA 11/26/67
