There was some talk about Eckman running a pro stock car at Indy several years ago. someone was putting him in a car for that race I think it might have been Roger Brogdon. Don't know if that ever happened.

It did - he missed qualifying at Indy, but ran again and even qualified at the Finals:

Here's a 2017 Q&A that explains what Bill and Jerry are up to:

This sort of morphed into a discussion about Pro Stock. Are you talking about sportsman racers as there have been several over the years. As stated above, I'm betting that a lot of them have been reinstated but supposedly were 'lifetime'. Also seems like some of them might have been offered a 'go away and don't come back' offer as opposed to a public shaming. I doubt anyone is willing to publicly name names though.

One well known guy comes to my mind that sort of disappeared and I always wondered why, although I could speculate. No names.

Who was in the dirty dozen way back when. I think it had to do with the matty box. Was old man Conley [spelling] one of them. Tom
