It was featured by Doug Marion in the March 84 Super Chevy, more recently I built a 68 Chevelle stocker that had a tendancy to corkscrew rather noticably as it pulled the left front wheel, I called it "Yank". I built another one and called it Yank II when I sold the first one to Tony Janes,after we upgraded the rear suspension, it tamed them down considerably, speaking of Tony, he and Marv Ripes had a 57 Chevy stocker called the Powerglide Prosecutor. He has a 4 door Chevelle today called the Powerglide Prosecutor II. We also have a red 68 Chevelle wagon O/SA car called "the Mule." It was originally supposed to be a test mule for various drive line combinations. Let's hear some more from those days in So Cal racing!!
Yeah Greg, I spent a lot of time at the County from 72 or so until it closed. i remember quite a few of those - and how about the Great White Knuckler 62 valiant, Lakacash 57 chevy, Cap'n Crunch 4 speed 56 chevy, Duster's Last Stand 71 duster gasser, Yankee Peddler 65 mustang, the Other Woman 66 nova, 2 Quarts a Day 62 plymouth stocker, Tin Indian pontiac, the Prehistoric Rat 409 el camino, Mr. Wedge 64plymouth ss/da - funniest thing about that one was what it said on the front fender - 426 cubic YARDS - LOL

Bracket racing legend, Johnny Labbous named all of his cars "Loose Caboose". Here's a pic of his SS/CA Plymouth from the late seventies. I traveled with him to many races. He won at Bristol two years in a row with this car. 1978 & 79. His car wouldn't run the index in super stock so he bracket raced it in IHRA's quick 32 class called Pro Street.

Wayne.
