Gary,

Ed, also ran that car with a '64 front-end with a 327/250 engine. That's how it got into SS/MA. I helped him change cams once and the valance on the '64 had a cut-out in it so that there would be enough room to remove the cam. The '65 front-end didn't need the cut-out as it was more pointed.

Thanks JRyan, and Jeff, I sometimes wish I lived up there in the northwest, and another perk to living there would be to recant how much I enjoyed being around Ed Wise's wagon, by watching yours in action. Good luck this season with it, I'll be rooting for you from here in the desert!

Mine is a different Wagon than Ed's, but it seems that the years they were running was the around the same time.

As for living up here, you end up sitting in the rain as much as racing.

Yeah I know it's different, but it looks similar and that's what I like about it. As for the rain, that and a growing presence here in the southwest by the IHRA, I have two big reasons that I'm glad I'm still here...rain is nice occasionally, but I prefer sunshine and warmer weather. However, now that Acton, Mt., has gone IHRA's way too, the northwest is getting interesting???
