What year was the Herslow and Morloc Firebird?

They raced SS/JA and SS/KA and set records with the car and were very fast....

I visited John Herslow's place once looking for some parts for a 455 I was working on for a customer/friend...

He had two trailers full of Pontiac HP stuff.....

I bought a set of +.060 Venolia flatops.....

He had some very rare parts......and some that never saw the light of day.....

I worked as a Pontiac dealer mechanic in the mid to late 1970's and recall a few of those SD Firebirds coming in for service work White with blue trim is the one I recall best.......Way faster than the average T/A of that era.....
