Re: Ron Garey's 68 olds
You want to hear a funny story on Ron. One year at Indy back when we had our 70 442 we used to have to run together . A tech guy came by and was just looking in our cars. He spotted lose bags of weight in the back floor board of Rons car and made him take them out. So he threw them over by the fence. Then when the guy left he ran back over and put them back in. Fred and Jerry Dover cracked up. NOW those were days.

Re: Ron Garey's 68 olds
Chuck or anyone:
I think this is the right thread for a question: I'm reading that Ron Garey won SS/E at the 1967 Winternationals. Was that in a 66 W30 or a 67 W30? Also his et & mph if known! I know SuperStock SS/ allowed any intake back then, but I wonder what intake that Olds used - not too many choices back then I'd guess. |

Re: Ron Garey's 68 olds
Not sure of the year but I remember it had an aluminum intake special to that car after that they were sent back to olds and were not allowed to keep it. If I remember there were only 13 made to racers

Re: Ron Garey's 68 olds
The 66s were put into SS/E for 1967 because only 50 (actually 54) factory cars were made, in accordance with 1966 stock rules. For 67, 500 were needed and 502 67's were made. So, as a 66, it had TriCarbs and I know of only one aluminum intake still out there, iron was standard for them.
