a couple of photos of it on the HAMB site...got the Maple-Leaf flag on the door?

So maybe the '57 with the smaller engine was a viable combo in SS/X? Guys probably
built them due to the success the Nejas had....



The only other SS/X car I actually saw run was a '61 Bubble-Top...also in D1...maybe
white in color?






A few years earlier, I saw the "Bits-n-Pieces"...that "Copper-Stopper" car mentioned
before...and also a '59 Chevy called the "Blue-Tick" from Al Provoast...all running in
U/S class at the '71 Summernationals...the year of the "old" Stock Elim rules....



We raced a 61 white chevy 2dr hardtop with a 283 2bbl combination,A-1 powerglide, in SS/X at Lancaster, Niagara and Cayuga in 1972. We moved the drivetrain to a 1962 two door post car (also white)because the SS/X record got blasted and set the SS/W MPH record at Cayuga. I think the 57 you are talking about was brown in color but I don't remember the name on the car. I know we raced it several times.
