Daryl,

Back on post #26 you will find that same photo.
It was submitted by the very knowledgeable and now mysteriously vanished
"Hemi Moose".
Where did he go?

Found this one one the HAMB. Says it's at Dragway 42. Anyone know this car?

[Terry Witzel]

I see the name Wes Koogle on the front fender, Nitro Joe could probably tell you this one.

Jim Thornton is working on the motor with trademark "flat top" hair cut. He drove when Eckstrand was at odds with the club and had his own car.

Looks like they are putting a little ice on the intake.

I believe that is Wes Koogle's car.

It ended up with Mary An Foss.

Both Ohoians..........

I went through this entire topic in search of a Mr. Ed A990.
Other than a couple of Ed Miller shots, these are the only photos I could find of anything with the name "ED" on it.



There a a number of really great cars and photos in here. You should review it sometime...........lol.

That car with Fast Ed was owned by Ed Ecenrode. He was a Chrysler service rep. He is retired. Don't know who owned before Fast Eddie talked to him at Eldora Raceway reunion this past summer.

J Oliverio is right, at the time of these pictures this car was owned by Eddie Eckenrode from the Pittsburgh area. I think the pictures were taken at PID. This car was Butch Leals original 65 A990 that he ran back in 65. (not the Butler Built car that Leal ran in the mid 70's). I think the car is in NJ now.

The Butler built car was run by Bill Diehl at Keystone Raceway Park back in the day and was once monikered "Steel City Hemi".
