Yeah, they do get pretty rough over there, but I do have a guy that is talking to me about the car I'm wanting info on.
Here's one of his PM's to me.
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Do you remember the car being blue at that time, or yellow, or maybe even red, as it was all those colors after the original black?</div></div>
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">It was black from the late 70's (as far back as I can remember) until early 90's. I don't know his real full name, My father is pretty ill at this time and won't remember. He, nor did anyone else mention him selling it. I talk to Cowboy a month before he passed, he was always at the track, and he talk about working on it, changing this and changing that.
It was change to an automatic in the 80's because he couldn't get the stick to launch correctly. I remember that pretty well, due to it being the only track rental I ever seen at Detroit Dragway in the early 80's. Cowboy and Fast Phil knew the owners pretty good and they let them test when ever they wanted..
Multiple colors was right up his ally being he was just a big old country boy having fun. What ever color his flat bed truck was the car soon followed. Hope this helps
Ahhhh, the memories... </div></div>
