Grumpy may not have sold cars, but he did offer street and race engine packages. I'm not sure how similar this would have been to a Motion Modified car. Anyone near Willow Grove PA hear of Billy Banks? He was a friend of my pop's who had a Jenkins prepared 327 in a 57 Chevy. This was in the mid-late 60's and it was all roller up. I think Billy later became involved with GTOs- something about a "Bobbin' Bear" race car seems to stick in my memory.
