Can anyone ID this old Cutlass Stocker?

Trombley's Darlington win was at the 1987 IHRA All Pro Winter Nationals. Unfortunately there were no Sportsman finals shown on the video, and the runner-up isn't mentioned anywhere. I can't locate any photos of the car when it was raced.

Someone (not me) could probably resurrect this car for not a lot of money. It is still classified as a J/K/L/M car with either the 350 or 455 (not the 400 mentioned in the ad), based on the trim level. And John West still has a shop in Raleigh.

First off I am truly sorry to hear of Lee's passing. He was a really nice guy always happy with a big grin. I talked to him some years back and he told me he had some health issues but didn't elaborate. We discussed getting the old car going but it just never happened. The boys have pretty much answered most of the questions about Lee's car but John West owned and built the car originally and would have the particulars. ------ God Speed Lee
