Bruce,Thanks,have more I'll share at a later date.I got to tell you,all the times I got to talk to Heavy,he came across real nice and a TRUE car enthusiest!! Carman Rotonda,Herb McCandless,Levi Holmes and Ronnie Lyles were some of his drivers.He loved street racing too,made a lot of money that way.Tony Battaglia of Batt Autobody painted all of his cars except his Dick Harrell 70 Camaro.Talked to Tony Battaglia many times too,painted a lot of Motion cars for Joel Rosen.Tony says nothing but good things about "Heavy".Tony has some real wild stories,one I will mention in the near future. Dan

Great pictures and articles. Dan, was Heavy's 69 B/M car a 427 conversion vs a COPO? I thought Joel didn't know about the COPO until very late in the production year.
