The Grump is also back at work in his shop. Spoke to George Taylor who runs a SS/FM car and Jenkins does his engines.

He was the domanant force in the late 60's into the '70's.

Merry Christmas,

Bob

I saw that posted on the Grumpy facebook page last night. Kinda neat for me being only 37 and never seeing Bill in is youth, yet he still carried that same tone, pace and inflection his whole life. To tell you the truth, if I closed my eyes and listened I don't think I could have guessed how old he was there just by the way he talked.

RIP Grumpy

Thanks for posting that link. Very cool.

On a side note...am I correct in saying that the little 396 was running against a 426 Hemi?
