Sam Griffith's Super Savoy!

[Z-11GUY]

That is a beautiful '62 Plymouth, I wonder if it is the same shade of blue Bill Hanyon of Milne Brother's Plymouth ran? As some can remember, Bill Hanyon Blair's speedshop tuned 413 blue '62 Savoy shut down all 1963 426 max wedge cars for S/SA class at the 1963 Pomona winternationals! Can you ask Gordy if he recalled racing Bures Hall or Bob Delia 409 and Z-11 427's in the same Chicago area? Thanks!!

Hey Raj, welcome aboard- sounds like you appreciate and been around these beasts. My info indicates that the Milne Bros. Ply. was a '62 Fury Hardtop. What I don't know is what tranny he had, but I'll bet you it was the push button 727 . My Plymouth was the darkest blue (really a medium blue) available from the factory (I have a Ditzler Paint chart for '62 Plymouths - but can't upload it tonight for some reason). He may have painted it a darker color or worked something out with the dealership when he ordered it. I will surely check with Gordy regarding racing Bures Hall or Bob Delia.

Thanks!

So - interesting user name u got there!

Sam I remember Allen Gartzman..and his wife ! He used to go to cruises at Fluky's Hot Dogs in Niles. At the time he had a63 faux Super Duty Catalina...black/red guts. Later he moved to AZ I think and aquired the only known 62 SD Grand Prix ??? I think that was it anyway. I had my 61 faux SS Impala 409 at the time.
