Rumpled Red Wagon
By Dave Wallace

With Bill Golden's blessing, longtime-fan George Geissinger is touring the truck that nearly took Maverick's life in Quebec City, Canada. Unseen by the public since its 125-mph crash in June 1975, the mangled remains of the third Little Red Wagon have been partially reassembled and repainted for display at selected Mopar events.

Campaigned only briefly by Maverick, this ill-handling A-100 was cobbled together from the crashed remains of Little Red Wagons One and Two. Among those to pay his respects was Don Garlits, who taped a TV segment on the reincarnated wheelstander.
