The last time the car was at the grove with the old chassis.......they had put the prostock engine in the car....when the car left the line with the big engine and big tires......everything twisted out of shape so bad that the chrome trim on the quarter panel popped off the car on the starting line....Probably a good idea
Welcome back Guy's...............These are the "Real" Chicago "Wise Guys".....Dick and Eric set the standard in the early years for the Chicago area ......It was fun watching them get into the weekly battles with Nick Gaglione and "Jailbait".......Great Times...

I have pictures of that car from the US Nats in '67 or '68. If I can remember it, I'll throw the old albumn in the trailer and bring it to Collinsville.
Lots of others as well: Shroyer's Shaker, Ralph Ridgeway's Ridgerunner, da Grump's C/G Camaro, Ditmar's Lil Screamer and Mini Brute, etc.....

(Sorry Verne; no shots of Linda! )

I heard that the DEA seized this car a while back. Did they buy it back from the Fed's?

Not private once it's been in the court system.
