            1964…was a high school senior…..remember watching Garlits run with my H.S. buddies…..most likely the same day. Now those were the real golden years. We just didn’t realize it.

                    In Don’s Own Words:
                    Swamp Rat 6B: Art Malone was not happy with his new 1964 Garlits “Swoopy Tail” car, it was the first one built from scratch and he thought we might have found out a few secrets while on the West Coast tour with the rebuilt SR 6’A car. Meanwhile Spencer Krumholts had purchased SR 6-A, leaving me with a bare chassis just off the jig. Malone saw this and figured this was the new “trick” car and he wanted it. I traded Art the new bare chassis for his complete car and body. This car became Swamp Rat 6-B, one super car, in August,1964 it set the NHRA National Fuel Record at Great Meadows NJ at 201.34 in 7.78 seconds, then won the 1964 US Nationals at Indy. We then did the British Drag Festival and set the British Land Speed Record of 197.00 MPH
