The Chevelles are 220hp cars...the '56 wagon is 225hp...and I'm guessing the
'59 is a 230hp car? How's that for parity?
Don't know about the '59...but the '56 appears to be Randy Smith from VA...I spoke to
him at the previous year's Summernationals...his car was orange I think...and he was
running as an O/Stocker...the last year of the "old" Stock Eliminator.
He and Alex Jarrell battled for the O/S record most of '71...with the '56 wagons running
the Corvette 2x4 motor....
With the Stock cars running Super Stock in '72....most cars dropped 2 classes...hence
the O/S cars of '71 became SS/Q cars in '72, etc...
Remember a local B/S '69 Camaro becoming SS/D as well.....
