Default Re: 1967/1968 Dick Harrell funny cars

Bob, first off this is nothing personal towards Tom or anyone else on this site but some are trying to make it personal. As for my interest in funny cars, I have had one since 1970 after watching Dick, Don Prudhomme, Tom McEwen, and others racing at Bristol. I have been watching the posts on the other website and when you have an outsider, whether posting here or there, comes on and shows obvious evidence that a car is bogus then one has to wonder why it wasn't caught during the restoration. I have never been an expert on funny cars but I am an expert when it comes to researching a topic, ask Kim Howie . I made a post stating something and then he came back and challenged it. Then what happened HE and I found out the truth talking on the phone and came to the same conclusions. We were both wrong, and both were right in the end.

I just read on the other site that Bob Gibson, who IS a funny car expert, has just stated what everyone wanted to know in the first place: Tom's car is not a Dick Harrell car and in fact it is the Huston Platt Dixie Twister. Congrats Tom!!! A "Southern" drag car found!!!.............RatPack....................
