Chris, This is really wierd!
I made a search too, and didn't come up with what you did. I've already reached out to the guy who contacted me to try to find out more about this car. It's a '62 Belair Sport Coupe (commonly known as a "bubbletop" <I HATE that word>
. It was built at Baltimore mid production. Now......who the heck would have taken a car like that and have bullet-proof glass installed?
Hey, wait a minute, I seen to recall a story about Strickler taking his '62 to a match race down south, (big motor and the aluminum front clip) and considering the Ford-Mopar crowd down there that was mostly drunk and exicted, and he was up against their local favorite, when they won the race, he just kept driving the car off the end of the track, through a line of trees and onto the main road where the crew was waiting with the tow bar and they left while they still had the skin on their backs. True story told to me from one of his old crew who I spent hours with a few years ago at York.......You never know......
God, I loved that story!!
