Where did this super stocker go?
 
1988 Ford Thunderbird turbo coupe GT/GA. Does anyone know where this super stocker lives now? It use to be Dale Shannon's. The last time I saw it it was for sale.

Dale Shannon sold the car to a Long Island racer named Bob Hammel in I think '98 or '99, if memory serves me correctly. Bobby ran the car for a few years, then parked it and eventually sold it. However, I haven't spoken to Bobby in a while and don't recall who he sold it to.

Vic Guilmino bought a GT/GA T'bird a few years back... might it be that one?

Vic's car was (I think) Mike Graham's from California.

2009 or so, a racer had the old S&B T-bird at my race at Hagerstown MD in November (Keith Wariner). Not sure who had it after him (maybe Keith still does?), running brackets at H-town.

I think originally that Dale Shannons car was built by a guy named Kent Widmer that raced a stocker 427 fairlane previously. I had heard that Jerry Bickel did the chassis but I am not completely certain abut that. The tbird was originally built as a modified car with a 429 or 460. Then Ray Paquet bought it and traded it to Dale for Dales stocker Mustang. Dale first ran a 351c in it and then went to the 460.

Does it still have the 460 combo in it and if so is the car for sale?

There is just something about that year of T-Birds that they just look right as drag cars. :D
