Also wanted to mention that if you do a Google search on the car there's an article that Apker wrote after he bought it. It actually broke my dad's and his long time friendship as the article lacked much truth and my dad confronted him about it.
At my dad's party this weekend Larry Webb will hopefully make it to celebrate. He worked on the engine with my dad.
Does anyone remember Jerry "The King" Ruth? He'll be here too. It'll be fun to see my dad with his old buddies, as he's stayed in touch with them and is still very much involved with drag racing...if only he had put me in a car when I was younger instead of my brother...
