That car was a really nice car when Bobby had it in division 3 he raced it alot and worked on it alot. He was a funny guy (haha) miss those days. Hope you get the car and have as much fun as Bobby did.

Google "drag racers reunion site, Bobby Dee Myers page" and you will see the photo with him standing holding his class winner Wally with a large sign behind him with 1985 US Nats.

I raced it at Winternationals around 2004 or 2005 with CW driving it in 1st round
in stock. Never saw it in Div. 7 after that ( O'Brien hated my guts even then).

Have all either owned or drove it since early 2000's here in DFW area. Been sitting a bit these last couple years, was at Ennis last month but a good car for the money. Be a good car to dive into the stock world, or a good car for the wagon lovers.

Bobby used to bracket race that car at Assumption, IL back in the late '70s early '80s. Only 13:50 car I ever saw leave with the front wheels 3 feet in the air.
