Kurt, I just noticed you're in Janesville. The 403 in the red car was all re-done by CP Motorsports, Peter Graves who is in Janesville. Maybe you know him.

Peter fixed the abortion of a job that a certain well known CA Oldsmobile engine builder passed off as a crate motor.

I had captured some old photos of &quot;El Malo&quot; off the web many years ago. It was sitting in a driveway, appears to have the engine pulled. Does anyone have large pics of it from back in the day? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

I've got people working on finding pics from its racing days if any exist. I'm told it may have been in Car Craft issue covering Springnationals in 1969, which would be the Sept. 1969 issue. Or maybe coverage at Indy during the first years of racing. One sticker on the car says &quot;Participant 1969 AHRA Springnationals&quot; and the other says &quot;National Hot Rod Association 1971 World series Championship - Eastern Conference&quot;. I still have to contact the former owners who raced the car.
