Sammy Millers Vanishing Point didn´t stay here for long, but he kept coming back with it. I think he had a Swedish wife. Pic was probably taken in the late seventies. ![]() ![]() ![]()

A couple of days ago my friend Ingemar in Karlstad contacted me after having found this thread. He told me that "The Greek" was bought in 1979-80 by two guys from Karlstad, Eddie and Perry Hollander. He believes the best time they made with it was 9.44. It was later sold to Torgny Trell, also living in Karlstad. Ingemar thinks the car is still around somewhere but doesn´t know who owns it. Ingemar is the guy who gave me vital information about the COPO-Chevelle "THE CONVINCER".

So you are telling us Anders that you guys stole this car too. Boy-O-Boy how about giving some of those cars back? Saw it run many times. John Theoflies (spelling) A real fast Modified Production car in the 70's-80's from the Delaware area.

Sam, you have to look at it this way: every car that is/was sent here can be sent back. Just think of my old COPO that is now back in the USA.

Yea maybe your COPO, but you guys don't want to give up the old race cars. Plenty of COPO's out there BUT the racecars are 1 of 1 manytimes. I would like to see a gathering of all the old race cars that went to Sveeden. I bet you guys could have a REAL nostalgia race, with the REAL cars! YEAA

I don´t want to upset Sammy (I hope he doesn´t see this at all!) but here is a good site for Funnycars seen at the Swedish tracks during the seventies. They were not that many.
