Jim Isherwood

To the best of my knowledge, Jims Hemi is a factory 67 S/S (WO23?) race car. Jim has been running the car since the late 70`s, and still has ladder bars and leaf springs out back. It`s been a bumper dragging Div. 6 crowd favorite for decades. Like Dale said, Jim & Marilyn are super nice people, and are also key organizers of the Northwest Stock/Super Stock Association. It`s great to see the Isherwoods reaping the performance of Jims hard work the past few years.

'67 Plymouth RO23 and Dodge WO23 cars have always been a favorite of mine and it's great to see one run this well. There aren't many of these cars around anymore. Danny Smith and Dave LeClaire are the only others I know of.

Don't think so Phil. Pretty sure Jim built the motor. Jim's pockets aren't Barton deep...May have some Barton parts on it though.

A big congrats to Jim for his Super Stock Number 1 Qualifying at Seattle, hope to see him in the winners circle soon too.
