I miss SS/DI magazine... and i agree, Stock has gotten completely out of hand...but im gonna dive in , anyway... I cant go in the deep end, maybe about 1/2 way...But, its something i talked about with my Dad(RIP) for many years, and im gonna give it a shot. ;)

How about Bobby DeArmond's 1969 Camaro the first stocker in the 9's and there is not a nicer car of any kind anywhere! And I didn't see a reference to Cal & MaryAnn Method's Chevy Nova which has won it's share of national & divisional races. Only God car remember how long they have raced that car.

Jerry, I wish you would try to get Hendrick to display the Strickler Z28 and the Mongoose/Snake collection in the public display area at his shop. Would be a great way to convey part of Drag Racing's history to the youth passing thru the NASCAR shop.

Jim, I have no say in that. It's his personal collection for guests when they visit. Not much I can do. Rick will need to expand as he's running out of room now. I have no idea where he will put the new pieces he bought at BJ. The Hot Wheels collection will take up a lot of space just by itself.

Any one know what the Buick sold for? Seems like @ BJ a couple years ago it sold WAY below what it should

Kevin, to stick with your original question, in an auction type situation, I think it would be hard to beat Ben Wenzel's original Z-28. One owner. He's still racing it. It wins. And it has a storybook history..... They should give him the Div. 3 number - 401k. JB

John removed the usuable stuff and then built the Delivery.A guy from Indy climbed the fence in the AM to check it out and several years later gave me the license plate off this car since I purchased the Sedan Delivery third handed. Still have the plate somewhere. Wish I still had the delivery but changed it to a wagon and kept going to fit the NHRA rules changes.
Very interesting, I never knew what happened to John Dianna's '56 Sedan Delivery.
Dick, so you changed the car to a 2 door window wagon? Do you know the whereabouts of the car today? Thanks.

post #108 mentioned the 1969 SS/AMX and questioned if any of the originals are running. The answer is yes my car is # 20 of that group and I still race it mostly at IHRA events. It came from Bill Swad AMC dealer in Columbus, ohio and was purchase and raced by the late Ray Whinery who lived in Lisbon, OH. I bought the car fom Ray in 1973.It should be worth a few pennies.

How about adding your AMX on the nostalgia forum?
Post up any original / current photos and statistics you have on the car.
We have Hemi Dart (LO23) and Hemi Cuda (BO29) topics that are stacked with history.
I know there is an S/S AMX website....... but not here. :-)

It all started with Liteweight's hunt for info on his Hemi Dart and has blown up into an entire forum.

Any pictures/any car from the past should be documented there. Old guys can bring back a LOT of history.....
