Default Re: 1967/1968 Dick Harrell funny cars

There is no need to further muddy the issue by digging up the Lopata funny car.
Toms latest pics show the rear window area with the recessed lip to set the rear window into. Ratpack stated something about the rear windows on the harrell cars being glassed in. In that case after removing the rear glasss you would not have a clean lip like on Tom's car. If all the pics out there show glassed in rear windows it would be hard to believe Tom's car is a Harrell car. If there are pics or a rear window with removable glass then that proves nothing.
I'm still waiting for USA-funnycar to come out of the closet.

Bigger yet is Val Harrells application to trademark the Fred Gibb name. What do the Rabbits think of that ? When they are sending their dollars to help Val in her feud with the Halls are they telling her to not use the money to take the Fred Gibb name from Helen ? Val has sold T-shirts in the past with the Gred Gibb name on them without asking Helen and Helen did nothing to stop her so why think someone would stop her now ? The name belongs to Helen and nobody should ever try to take it.

I understand, I don't really give a crap about this anymore, but was trying to understand the motive behind it all.

Kim,

We did and I think we discussed it looks like a steel bodied car..notice the stock appearing nose..very similar to the DH 1967 car..also a door is pretty evident there IMO..notice the pretty pronounced gaps..

My interest is simple..it is an interesting topic..you guys need to be looking less for a "conspiracy" and more at the cars..I can't say it any plainer...Ask Kim..

No Greg, I never said Dales was a steel car. You said it!! Then I said how come the info under it stated it was FILP TOP funny. You didn't say anything to that comment.You also stated it was a 68 not 67 because it had marker lights. The reason for my post about Dales car is because you stated above that "Ok now let's look at EVERY other 1968 FC I can find on the 'web...no door handles" I am going back to wall papering

No offense Kim,

I would think most can see that is a 1968 car..marker lights and all, no side vents, etc.....the car was actually owned I believe by a Charlie Wilson i think and driven by Dale

Either way..whether it is a steel rear car, with glass doors, like the DH 1967 car or a true flip top car it doesn't take the discussion away from Tom's car..

Also I guess Tom really has the 1967 car, since people don't make mistakes and Tom bought a FC with a receipt caying a "1967" car....
