I remember his genius in making those small block Mopar heads work in his Arrow. The car in its entirety was an engineering masterpiece but the ingenuity in getting heads right exceed any superlatives I can muster.

GODSPEED Bob Glidden!

Very thankful this was posted in error, but the reverence shown for Bob by all here can not be diminished nor should it be misinterpreted.

Even though there is some good stuff on there this is one of the reasons I stay off Facebook.
I hope Bob is still with us many years from now, He is a god.

Recall Bob running Cunningham's Mustang at Indy just a few years ago and saving a run that nobody else could have driven out of. He was the master.

RIP Bob.
