The National Record certificates and class win trophies from these cars covered the walls of his shop.
The coupe is now the late Johnny Williams' Cajun Nightmare car.

Al, thats me at 18 in the Hooker T shirt.
I spent a lot of my "wasted youth" working on the Olds' and others with Jack.
Johnny told me it was Jack's car.

So this is not the car above? I'm not Al by way. I'm nobody.

Same car .
I believe Ron bought it from Jack , after that I don't know I till Johnny got it.
Dave Ley may know more of its history in between.

Yeah that makes sense. Ron also got Paul Mayo's white W-30 convertible.

I remember all of them , used to go to the shop every night to work on them.
That picture of the flat roof wagon was taken right down the street from my current shop .it's the front of a Junior High School , Jack drove the car down the road from his house for it .
Same road that all the cars got tested on !

Good info. You got anymore pictures? Here is another shot of the wagon. Raced briefly by Dick Griffin before Paul Mayo took over. Vista still exist I hear. The dark colored Troxell convertible was painted white (not the same car as 76 Gatornationals) and converted to a 72 and raced as Supremacy by Al Seger before he went to the flat top wagon. Flat top wagon owned by Keith Curry now. Convertible was destroyed in a wreck in the mid 80s resulting in a fatality.

So you remember this above convertible Troxell built? I think Dick Griffin bought the wagon and this car above off Troxell at Indy. Also got the flat top wagon off him?

Here is a different Troxell SX convertible as if SX convertibles grew on trees.

Kevin did own the coupe for a while.
