Most iconic Stock/SS car in AZ
 
Hi guys

Looking for opinions as to which car everyone would consider the most iconic class car out of AZ over the past 35-40 years?

Pics would be awesome as well.. My wheels are turning on an idea but I'm not sure I've been in the class racing world long enough to know the answer to this!

Thanks!

Brad Hawk

Brad, Are you trying to start trouble here and make enemies out of friends? LOL

I don't know what iconic number this one is, but it should be considered.

Neil Smedley's 80-81 turbo- charged 301 Firebird.
The only turbo-ed car to ever win an NHRA event.
(correct me if I'm wrong)

Probably the only Stock Eliminator to win. Buddy Ingersol won some with that twin turbo V6 Buick in comp.

Still has to be the late Kippper. Who knows how many class wins and top 5 qualifying positions, and National Records? With a car that Toby Torres used to race.

Does anyone have a pic of Kip's car that is more of a side shot. Need a better look at the paint scheme for what I'm doing!

Thanks for the ideas guys!

Didn't Del Blades live in Arizona before he moved to Wichita in the 1960's?

Don't overlook Donnie Anderson's station wagon.

Was just wondering what makes a car "iconic" - likely different for different people .. IMHO.

Old - winner - classic muscle - SS - Stk - paint scheme - car name - etc.
