Bill Gibbs has a bad ***** GTX and Ronnie West's (R.I.P.) car is really cool too.

See you at the races,

They are certainly competitive. This one happened to win the Houston National this year. Heavy aint got nothing to do with it.

That is Chuck Stubecks SS/FA car (if I am not mistaken) Chatsworth California. Still runs hard.

I wish you well with getting it back, because after last weeks Jegs Pacific Sportsnationals in 'Vegas, Chad Loge's '70 GTX was 3rd quickest in E/SA, and within .18 of the quickest car in that class, besides being 27th qualifier out of a field of 58 cars. More significantly, he also qualified for regular eliminations at Indy this year (123rd qualifier, at -.800 under the E/SA index), inspite of all of those more popular combos, and the newer stuff...knowing how well you guys power mopars, I'm sure you can at least do that good with the great history you've had given the vast variety of mopar bodies your shop has campaigned over the years...the weight of the car will be a non-issue with you guys too....

Nice pics I know his as it is now is a 383. Hey Joseph is the 440 harder to get to run the number because of its size compared to the Cuba and duster? I figure as the oldest the bee should be mine in the future.....ha

Francois' car is a sight to behold. If you've never seen it leave, your missing out. 10.20's in B/SA at damn near 4000 lbs is getting it done!
