There is a Daytona stocker sitting in a field in Texas. It was a former record holder and won class many times. Shame it is rotting away.

Could this be Jeff Lee's former record holder? First FWD car in the 13's.
Is it white, by any chance?

A question for the informed!!!!! My late father in law left us a Cadillac El Dorado, fwd, with all the features.think it was 32 v. I think it was a 98...it was the cool looking one. Anyway, the thing was fast but I was afraid I would break something before getting it sold.
My question is: do these cars FIT in NHRA? One is for sale down the road.

Oops, I now see that it is not in the book...oh well

No it was a blue Daytona raced by Floyd Colley. I think he had the record for a short time. Car last ran in Dallas several years ago before he passed away.

This car was stolen, crashed and buried at a race track up north while getting a fresh drive train installed. It was discovered years later when some track expansion was being done. It was a weird deal! Jim
