Lower Class Stockers

One of my first heroes in Stock was Rusty Canfield. His Charger was a Shelby, but collectors always told him it wasn't because it didn't have the embroidery in the headrest... except Rusty's was the very first one - the rotisserie show car! He helped me out a ton with the Turismo when I was first getting started.

One of my favorite Stockers of all time is Ray Golanka's Q/SA Caddilac, although I'm not sure that it fits this post, as Ray got it into the 12's back in the late '90s! Yeah, smokin' the right rear tire...

Rusty gave me a tuneup for the car for first round of my first NHRA race, and picked it up .15!

That's one way to make Billy's U/SA Nova look fast!
