As an aside, Tom currently owns the Dave Benisek/Doug Jones "Factory"GS stage 1 racecar as well. I think the Jason Line car was the fastest full weight 455 GS I ever remember seeing-what a car!
Tom had several Buicks at the same time. He did run the Appollo in NHRA and IHRA Top Stock if I remember correctly. That car was sold several years ago.

He has sold the Jones and Benisek Stage II car a few years ago.

He still has the Silver Stage I Car that he won Top Stock at Norwalk Ohio. I think that car is for sale. It has been very fast.

He has restored a Triple Black 455 GS with a four speed for the street.
He is currently restoring a 66 Nova with a 327 4 Speed combination.
