teardown photos from BG in the 70's
 
Here are a couple photos taken in the teardown barn by Bill Truby. They were taken at Bowling Green in the 70s.

Anybody recognize anybody?
Is that Wesley doing the tech?

Mark, do you remember the weight/hp factor for X/SA?

Dave ,No I don't for sure. 24-25b #, maybe. I don't save all that old stuff. Travis has all those old rule books. Maybe he'll see this . X/S became a FWD class later on.

I found my old rule books; X was 23.00-23.99 in the '73 book.

In the first photo, the guy leaning over the valve spring tester in the background is John Biedenkapp. He was the Div. II Tech Dir. then. X/S was 23-23.99.

Does anyone have a full picture of Harry's Comet?

That doesn't look like Pritchett to me in the pic. Is that '65 Chevelle convertible Jimmy Gower's? Not Wesley in the pic either.

Middle picture far right side . My old partner Ray (Tex) Cook and next to him Kevin Schmidt. I was probably under the car.

Dave,

If anybody would have a picture of the comet it would be Tom Kasch. We are all from the same area and I remember that car.

Steve
