bbdon,,,,,,,Thank you so much. I knew I wasnt crazy. Really, I did. I want to find that car. Please help. I know there are Yenko Novas and there are 396/375 Novas and all manner of humungous engine Novas but "Bad Bascom(b)" is the baddest of the bad and I would sell my house to get it in the same condition as in the article. Thanks again!!!!!........Bill S

Bill, I agree that Bad Bascom was the baddest of the bad. I had always thought that Dick Harrell ended up with this car eventually with a Z-11 motor and conventional rear axle and was crashed in 1965. I'm not sure if this is the same car that sat behind the gas station St. Louis or not. Anyway, could you imagine watching this car leave the line with its ass squatting down with that Corvette IRS. Too cool!

So Bad Bascom could be what became the 'Retribution' car w/ the Z-11?
Tooo coool!
Retribution underhood pictures exist....anyone got some?

This one may be earlier. Different paint and lettering. Bill Thomas certainly did make a big contribution to this car.
Too bad it's so underpowered..... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif

Rollbar looks the same as Bad Bascom and it's got the same molded front end.......

PS: You guys are scaring me. You're getting interested in this early stuff.... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Here's another Saturn V launch. Definitely the same roll bar. Notice the S&S Headers lettering was removed at this time.
