Jim Waible started talking to her while Ivar's partner (always wore slacks, etc) was talking to some racers. Jim asked her what the rest of us were wondering, what she was doing with him? :-)
She told Jim she was just a model he had hired to walk around with him. LMAO!!

I liked Ivars a lot. He helped me with parts I couldn't really afford at the time. Now I can afford whatever I want, but working on the car is much harder, and it appears I've forgotten how to drive the dang thing.
If that's the same Jim Weibel that was based out of Lakeland Fla , back in the seventies .............he built a 427 for a friend of mines 67 Camaro.

Weibel Competition.........wonder what ever happened to that guy?
