Heh Heh I knew his name but just didnt know how to spell Norbert Holtzel.....LOL. Didnt Bob Maxey have a maroon or red 60 SD Catalina with a 4 speed for awhile before he went bracket racing? I kind of remember him saying he blew a stroker motor all over the York US 30 track running Dave Strickler one day. Alum rods bounced all over the place....LOL. I remember Mikes 61 baby blue wagon but didnt know who got it as I was in the Army taking a south east asia "Vacation". I saw it once at Herb Geblers shop with the front end off of it after I got out of the Army. I couldnt believe how much stockers had progressed in the 3 years I was gone. Went to INDY in 68 while still in the Army and slept in the back seat of my 68 Z-28 for about a week. Saw Larry Lombardo win stock over Dave Duell. Hurry up with that time machine Billy. Hope to go back before I get to old and croak.
