Bob has had lots of Pontiac Stockers, for sure. Last 3 were a '62 GP, a '77 Lemans, & a '77 Catalina, IIRC. I think Dave Ribeiro now has the Lemans.

Not aware of his SS Pontiacs.

Re: Best Pontiac Powered Super Stockers
 

He was my first Pontiac SS hero, when he won the the US Nats & Sports Nats, in '75. We saw him run that screamin 389 wagon, at a points race in Jackson, Miss. Got a real good close up pic. But I've already posted it here.

Yeah, it was a nat record holder. We saw it run at the 1978 Cajun Nats. Got a real good close-up of Sonny & the car. Had never heard of Sonny Ray or the car. Didn't know who it belonged to, til I ask here.

Sonny won the Cajun Nats in '79 & '82 !

I think after it got a new paint job, it was the same car David Rampy used to get his 1st nat event win, in around 1983, at the Cajun Nats.

Wow!,I had completely forgotten Herslow and Morlock. They earned a lot of respect back in the day,esp. from Pontiac people.

There were several SD455 Birds. Here's Russ Abrams.

The first one I remember was the H-O Racing Specialties red '74. It was a record holder. We saw it at the '78 Cajun Nats. I've read that it is the same car that J.B. Clegg has, & has raced, with a 4-speed.

John Clegg raced a '73. J.B. Raced it this season. I think J.B. has got both cars down near the mid 9's.

Bill Rink and Greg Meyer from Div. 3 have two of the nicest Pontiac powered Super Stockers you will see.

Bill's little GTO is one of the quickest 350 Pontiac powered cars ever, along with Mike Morgan's '77 Bird.
