I've always been partial to Gene Bichlmeiers "Bick's Beater"
that he has on all of his super stockers.

The HAMB has a great thread going with this very same theme...

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

Later version of Bill's Chevy.

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.

John Armenhoff huge early sixties dodge wagon, painted blue with a huge white whale painted down the side, lettered Moby Dodge...
Wish I had a picture...
And we have been discussing a name for our crate motor Firebird, somehow Super Chicken keeps coming up, and my 14 month old granddaughter seems to approve...

In the early 70's, the guy that got me hooked on Drag Racing had a 68 Camaro,BB, 4-speed car called "Flaming Star".
