    I agree! This car made a lasting impression on me as a kid! Everyone I grew up around knew about Race Riot, it was years before I saw any pictures of SWC. The car looked great in the later blue paint job also.

    What happened to Virgil Cates? Shop accident or break in? I hadn't heard about that.

    A little biased but here is my favorite Gasser. Old Sandy has brought me to many winners circles.

    Once again, anything with altered wheelbase can be a neat racecar but cannot be a gasser (in the rules).

  11. This is one of my favorites. K.S. rolled it up in a ball at Mineral Wells Tx in the 60's. :(

    Steve Plueger updated the Bizio Truck in 67-68. I restored it for Tom Willford (Vintagegasser) here on the HAMB in 87. We made minor upgrades and Tom let me race it at the Nostalgia Nationals at Fremont in 87. I installed hand controls for Tom and he raced it 6 seasons. I think his best time was 9.21 at 151 mph. He sold it to our friend Wendell Poulson, Wendell had me install the funny car cage to make it tag at 8.50. It was sold to the current owners back east. My compliments to them keeping it looking so great. I must admit it is my favorite gasser of all time!

    These do it for me. Just because I get to work on them once in a while.
