Still have the plate somewhere. Wish I still had the delivery but changed it to a wagon and kept going to fit the NHRA rules changes.

Cool Story, DIck... Muncie is my home track, and im good friends with Bruce& Peggy Seward. Muncie has claimed a few good cars, over the years... the most notable(in my opinion) is Ted Harbett's(spelling?) Studebaker "The Chicken Hawk"... He race it as a Stocker for years, as im sure you know... I just arrived at the track , about 45mins after it happened... He's ok , but the car was destroyed, Oil line mishap...i think it was to one of the blowers, im not sure. Hard to see that much history get destroyed, in the blink of an eye. He had the car goin in the 9's, with 2 AFBs and Stude power...
