    Kind of hard to tell but I thought they were Cragar Super Tricks, the below HAMB thread has a pretty comprehensive timeline, says introduced in 1970.
    I bought mine in 1976/77.

    Great pics, is the GOLDEN COMMANDO Plymouth a HEMI or a WEDGE motor?

    Thanks,

    Figured that honda motorcycle dated that photo.

  4. First Super Tricks I ever saw were at Indy, 1972, on John Lingenfelter's 69 rag top.
    The picture has to be 1972 or newer. Tri 5's didn't run Super Stock until then.
    I keep telling LB this, but he seems to think this place is year /model only, being the only requirement.
    Many posts were removed from the Junior Stock thread because of 70's light weight wheels.
    If I was a moderator, they'd all be gone too, including those ugly-a** fake spindle mounts.

    Hoodlums can only follow the rules so long;)
    I hope LB stays around, we'll yank his chain when needed.

  10. I wouldn't be sure they ever did.
    This is a picture of a Nostalgia Super Stock car, built in the early 90's by Mr Bill Banks who passed away shortly thereafter . It ran NSS in the early days of the NMCA. Not sure about the Todd Motors connection.Might be just a friend of the builder.
    I believe Chris Casperson's Performance Years Pontiac Parts was the actually sponsor of this car.

    Got a Bunch from Bangkok Dean.
    While most of them are not TRUE SS cars they are the top few classes that were then sent over to A/FX or SS later on when the rules changed.

    Thanks, Guffey. Trivial, perhaps, but another Parkersburg native was also an early Hemi user, Paul Goldsmith.
