How this Sudbury man's 1976 Dodge Duster became an homage to his family

Peter Lalibert races an orange 1976 Dodge Duster call called "The Coffin."

He took CBC's Markus Schwabe "for a burn" in a series called 'Summer Spin.'

But "The Coffin" has a rich history.

"My dad, LeoLalibert,used to stock car race back in the day," Lalibert said. "He was rowdy, he drove crazy. Drove through ice, two wheels."

"He had a bad accident one weekend and my mom said, 'Leo, that car is going to be your coffin.'"

"So of course, my dad, just loving getting my mom cranked, came out the next weekend with 'The Coffin' on the side. He said 'Guess what Helen, you think my car is going to be the coffin, now everybody knows it is the coffin.'"

Listen to the sound clip below to hear the rest of Lalibert's story, including how this year's racing circuit is an homage to his late brother, Mike.
