Default Re: The CONVINCER II

I found a lot of old photos today. I have been looking for some of them for a long time, but I also found some I didn´t knew I had.
Would you believe it! I was actually at Mantorp Park in 1978 and took a picture of the Convincer II ! Look at the first pic I showed of the Convincer in Sweden. I took my pic at the same time, with the HemiCuda in the other lane.

Here is a pic of the HemiCuda when it still had "Speedwin" on the doors.

And here are a couple of pics that I found in an article about the in Sweden famous dragracer Jöran Persåker. They were published in Wheels magazine, January 2008, as you can see. The first one shows the car repainted and the second one taken in 1984 at Santa Pod England, shows the car after the fire.

Until Jöran and his friends returned to Sweden, Jeff Hauser took care of the remains of the car. Jeff Hauser was then the owner of a Super Stock Challenger which for obvious reasons caught Jörans interest. That Challenger was a factory T/A Challenger which had been acid-dipped and turned into a Super Stock car by no other than Paul Rossi. Jöran bought that car in 1985.
