Rick Johnson does owen The Butterfly and has run the car very successfully in SS/Ba since the late 80's. We had a great chat with Larry Morgan at Brainerd about the car.

Ted & Tina Spehar both told me last summer that tried finding the car unsuccessfully. Tina still has the title in her name to the car.

It has been fifteen to twenty years ago, I was at the US Nats at Indy, at the Adams Mark reunion show buying t - shirts from the late Dick Towers ( matchrace madness shirts ) when up walked Ted Spehar to greet the other fellows standing around, When I asked Mr. Spehar where the Butterfly had gone he told me that the Rod Shop got the car. Now I know that they had many cars and drivers, but I do believe that was the only 64 Dodge they owned. A lot of time has passed since then, thats what I remember, if I am wrong it is because the information was wrong.

Carroll Fink actually had owned the car. I'll have to get in touch with Ted and ask again.
