I remember when Greaser got that car painted like that. He raced my cousin and Ray Schurr in Rays Double 5 1955 Chevy in Modified Production. Bob Grasso also had that speed shop in Bristol??? with the guy that ran Sir Nomad. Grasso's brother had an anglia and Bob also had a Yenko camaro and a few other real nice cars. Saw Retribution and the Double 5 run in the mid 60's at Vargo!

I know many times that Bobby won between him and Ray and that the red lite was turned off when they ran. Ray left dead red one time and did not bulb so as to prove ray's thoughts. The good old days!! The Double 5 was a 265 inch motor with a cross ram type intake. Those cars ran mid 13's in that fashion. Grasso's parents owned the Sea Gull Inn in Jenkintown or North Hills I believe. Ray Schurr has passed away I think. Don White knew him from the Pontaic's he owned after the Sunoco gas station days in Warminister.

Just making sure I'm following. Ray Schurr = Ron Schoor pictured here:







As I recalled he owned a Sunoco station. Passed away, probably about 10 years ago. Every once in a while I would stop by and ask him for advice or help on something. Never hesitated to answer me to the best of his ability and I look back fondly of my encounters with him. I do remember though that I would always appraoch him with some reservation, much like I see most people behave around Grumpy Jenkins and probably for the same reason.

I'll check with him. This Ron has a station in Willow Grove, and I'm pretty sure it was a Sunoco- later 1960's.
