Re: "Stockest" looking Stockers!
Here are a couple of our stock looking stockers. The Mustang is a car that was campaigned for years by Wayne Larsen. It's an original 71 Boss 351 car with the numbers matching block still in it. We haven't run it in a number of years now. The other is my Nova 72 350 car. Always a fan of clean uncluttered original looking stock and super stock cars.

Re: "Stockest" looking Stockers!
As a side note, I'm happy to report that thanks to Wayne Totaro, he put me in touch with Jack Arnew. Anyone who's been in racing for a while know that his name is legendary in the sport. He did most of the front end suspension set ups on all of the killer cars during the late '60s and way into the 1970s. His work was second to none and Jack has just finished up the front end set up on my car. At 79 years young, he looks 65 and has that Dick Clark thing going on. Jack still enjoys doing this type of work part time. Thank you Jack Arnew!

Re: "Stockest" looking Stockers!
Rick's post reminded me of this.
The Mustang I had used the original block all the time I had it. We had to sleeve the # 3 cylinder twice, but it still went with the car when I sold it. The head was original for a while until I torched it pretty good. I found a replacement on the boneyard hot line and Tibor did it for me. He was pretty tired of 2300 Fffffords by the time I was through. Anyway, the pic is at the very first race, before I could get to the decal trailer. This one's for Billy. Ol' Yac
