I moved from Mich to Cali in 72, always used to hear about all the cool $hit that went on there, fortunately I was able to attend the last two races!.. Then got invloved with an altered and ended up closing up the County, was some good times there!..

Quote (Purple Jurk @ Dec. 02 2007,8:15 pm) | No not that I can remember! Â After 1968 or 69 he tried to make it a mid engine, But nothing ever came from it as he got involved with some other Cars and that one was scraped! |
Hmmm, wonder what happened to it and if it's the same one?, I remember he said it was nasty when he got his and he had to totally redo the car from the ground up, I never cared for those always thought they were butt ugly, but this one was a class act after he got done with it!.
