Hey Verne, Did you know Eddie Eliason also? If you see Mopar Joe ask him about Eddie Eliason from Barnegat light, he will give you many stories. Does Joe still have a house in Surf City?
Also ask him about Rolfe Engelson from Barnegat Light also, they use to call Rolfe the General,Way back they hung with Garlets and the others, he had a dragster called the Toilet(didnt have the money for good paint so he painted it turd brown) It had an old 392 blown hemi.

OK, now that I know I'm thinking of the same guy, HPM did a profile on him maybe 10 years ago.

Sam,
I don't know of the other guys you mentioned. I don't see or talk to Joe on a regular basis. Really only met him a couple times. Bob Hendrickson is a good friend of mine and I watched the Bounty Hunter get restored at his place in Pleasantville. I went with them and the dragster to the first NHRA Hot Rod reunion in Columbus several years ago. Connie Kalita flew in and squeezed himself back in the seat in front of the stands for a photo-op.
Fun trip.

Verne
