ATTN: Bob Rice
Bob,
I talked to Jimmy Spell the other day and found out he owned my car in the 80's. Might you have any photo's of it back then. He lives in NC. Thanks ED

Ed,
I've got a couple laying around somewhere. To the best of my knowledge, Jimmy's car was owned by Troy Humphrey, Greg Anderson's father-in-law, prior to Jimmy owning it. Email me at bobrice@embarqmail.com. Bob |

Bob,
As usual you are correct again, Troy and Ronnie Humphrey owned the car and I think Troy, Ronnie, and George Duff all drove it at one time or another. I'll be going up your way to Garley's next week if you need anything from my neck of the woods. Doyle |

Doyle,
You have a PM. Also, I believe that Herb McCandless built Troy's Chevy II. Bob |

Smitty,
One of my friends went to buy the car and Troy said Jimmy had just bought it. BTW, I do apologize but I can not find the tape with Vince on it. I remodeled and think my wife put it some where. Take care, Doyle |

Smitty,
I found the tape with Vince on the NHRA Today program. I just have to get a copy made. I'm slow but I'm steady. Bob Rice |

Re: ATTN: Bob Rice
Smitty,
Another racer Jason Silver posted on this site that Jimmy owned it at one time. I looked up Jimmy and talked to him. He told Me about Troy Humphrey. He also asked me if I knew a tree fell on it at one time!!! If you have anything I would be very interested. ED
