If you look at the C piller on the first picture it looks like it has a SS/B designation.





Welcome to my nightmare

Liteweight, I have some info for you. I was searching the net for anything on the "Cookie Duster". I really didn't think anything would pop up, but this thread did. Anyway, the Cookie Duster was my dad's (Tommy Blowe) race car. He bought it new from a dealer in MD. He lived in northern virginia and raced a lot in Manassas. He owned the car until about 1972 and sold it to some unknown guy from Maryland. He still has a bunch of photos of the car. If you need any additional information, PM me and I'll give you his info

I am pretty sure I recall seeing the Cookie Duster race at Capital in the mid 70s. The car used to show up with Greg Avent's hemi Road Runner. I think the owner's 1st name might have been Clyde.

Not sure what you meant the cookie duster's first owner was named Clyde or Clyde was owner of the roadrunner? Clyde may have bought the car from my dad Tommy. My dad was the 1st owner of it and painted the car himself since that's what he did as a profession.

Clyde would have been the Cookie Duster owner at the time IIRC. I was paying attention at the time because they were hemi Mopars but it was a long time ago.

Latest update on the quest to find the ownership trail to my car, I've been looking for a program of the 1977 Bracket Nationals as a possible lead for a name from a decal that was on my car back in the late 70's. A definate long shot, but something that needs to be followed up on.
A member here, JimB, pmed me there was one of these programs on ebay, so I purchased it. It's not alot of help, but there is one poor picture in it of a 68 Dart that holds some promise. It was named "Plum Crazy" & was owned by a Bob Baughman from Greensburg, PA & raced out of Keystone Raceway Park.Anyone remember this car? Does anyone here know Bob,?
Is he a relative to John Baughman?
Any help would be appreciated

Fingers crossed !!!!
Hopefully a beginning to the end of your search.

Any way to scan and post the picture?

Daryl,

Just sent an email to 4 of my very close Mopar friends in the Pittsburg general area
requesting any info on the car or owner as described.
