    I have been trying to reply to you about the Beaver Hunter
    I al ong with Nolen built the car in early 65 we ran the car into 67 when I got married Nolen & Henry ran the car untell they lost the motor and crashed at Lions they then built the car you had Henry drove tne car untell he was hired to drive for Mickey Thomson Dale drove untell they were on the eastern tour half way thru Henry way back in the car after they got back Henry went back to driving for Thomson this is when Force tryed to drive??? after this Nolen sold the car.
    The#2 car was the same body as #1 but with some fiber glass work the car was named and lettered by Ed Roth. Douring this time only Pure Heaven won more races.
    If any one knows were the car is let me know.
    thank you Joe Thomas

    we might make a denton or crandall meet, i would like to make a few passes at little river (temple), with it that would be fun. Maybe we could make a MoKan trip out of it. Do you run MoKan dragstrip up there? Car still needs to get lettered and plug the motor in, i think we are pretty close:rolleyes:.

    Rest easy guys, the word from Jenkins Competition is that he is not as bad as is being reported, they say he is pretty good, still grumpy (that's a good thing) and should be fine :)
