I remember reading up on Bob Marshall's SS/BA "Dodge Material" a bunch in the car mag's. However, I also had the pleasure of watching Dennis Mauer's Blue & White Coronet at the drags in Denver back in the 70's & 80's.

Now knowing that Don Wann raced one of them too, makes me wonder if any of you have pics of his "Rettig Bro's" car, and of him...I'm certain he had a photo taken with his mustache in a "French Curl" like "Ringo" from the outlaw gunslinger days of the "Old West", but I don't have any of those 70's-80's magazines with me. Any collectors out here with that (I believe Super Stock & Drag Illustrated) magazine? I'm thinking he was racing in the Winter Nationals when the photo was taken, and he was running that Coronet in SS/BA. I told Steve that I remember seeing a photo of his dad like that, but I can't find the right magazine...

Yes, I just wish I could tell if he had that gunslinger looking mustache in it...I see one, but not very good...No wonder those '65 Coronets are amongst my favorite car to watch (and I wish someday to race in), all of them are SS/BAAADDD!!!!!

Dennis Maurer's with Motor Wheel Flys on it was my favorite.

A car I almost bought in 1970 was the black Coronet of Tom Crutchfield of Kocomo, In.
