Sideplate!! will you marry me.

 

Great shots. I got to get off my ass and get some more on here. This is the only one I have on my computer. Jack Harris f/c with his new Jardine headers

 

Glad to see you back Jerod.

 

The Larry Reyes Cuda was sold to Paula Murphy and she raced it on the Coke Circuit for a couple of years..FYI

 

It's a GMC truck, could have a gas V-12. Looks like a Carryall body

 

George Whalen......

 

not here to argue, but the grill sure looks blue oval to me. they were the "n" series Fords. Would make sense considering the car he's running. my $.02

 

The N series Ford was very similar, but that truck is definitely a 60-62 GMC 5500, possibly a school bus chassis, with a panel truck body added from the firewall back. Pretty clever, I'd say

 

I think that is Bert Strauss' pro stock Pontiac -he ran a little inch "real" Pontiac motor, and would buzz it to 9 grand. I think he qualified #1 at englishtown in 74 or 75.

Neil Mahr is a friend of my boss- these days he's livin the good life on some island in the Caribbean I think- he was back in town briefly last year.

 

That rear engine Javelin is interesting. I thougt Jim Dunn was the only guy that ran a rear engine funny.

 

The old Dodge Boys car

 

that shot is bitchin"!!!!!!

 

Yeah hes living in St Thomas or St Johns? one of the two...my old man raced TF with him and went and visited him last winter and hes doing good..

 

Don't know about the chassis, but I stand corrected. Zooming in on the hood/grille does show those 3 letters GMC. The similarities are striking!!!

 

Add another 15 other guys who try a RE F/C and failed .........
