Old Drag Car Pictures.........

jerry, can you elaborate a little on how you found the car, the condition it was in?

Super Stock Magazine did a four page spread on me and the car and how I found it.....May, 1996. The Strickler family had promo photos of the car when it was being set up for a shoot with Hot Rod Magazine. In one of those photos was a picture of the engine and vin stamping on the deck. I ran it through MVA and found the car less than 75 miles from York, PA.

Guy was getting ready to part it out and sell at a swap meet. Still has the original fenders, doors, quarters, sub frame, rear axle and more. Needed floors like any other super gas car would but it was rust free and kept inside all of it's life because it was a race car. Still had the original aluminum ball joint spacers that Howie Slaybaugh, (Strickler's crew chief) installed when the car was set up for Super Stock.
