[This is the #9 post Ghoast Missle references: QUOTE=James L Miller;381256]One of my favorite drivers was Judy Lilly. She took the time to talk to a young kid at the Bradenton test session circa 1976. I took off work on day to drive across the Skyway bridge to go see the Mopars racing/testing. I wish they still had those test sessions. All the big guns where there. Judy was very friendly to a kid straight out of HS.[/QUOTE]

MaryAnn Foss and Judy Lilly were both heavy hitters!

We believe a good friend/business partner of mine has the original Judy Lilly car. We are in the process of documenting the car right now with the help of Mark Janaky and others.

I have traced the history of the car from Judy to the current owner. Doing this, I have spoke with Mark Janaky, Jim DeFrank, Jim Clark and Dave Dupuis. I have yet to contact Judy, but I am in the process of trying to find her number.

If anyone has contact info for Judy, please send it my way. I am sure she would be thrilled to know her car is still alive!

Here is the history I have so far...

Judy Lilly New in 1968 - 1973
Russ Muira 1973 - ? (Sale coordinated between Judy and Russ by Jim Clark) I spoke with Jim Clark today and he confirmed this.
Jim DeFrank ? - 1978 Hot Rodding Cover/Article
Van Broussard 1978 - ?
Dave Dupuis ? - ? (Sold to Collector. Owned Trucking CO. in VA? Name unknown)

Sold at Cruise Auction in Early/Mid 80's to current owner.

There are many things I found on this car to determine what car it is along with conversations with previous owners.

A few of these things are...

Yellow paint in areas that were not completely masked when it was painted the white it currently is.

"Butler Roll Cage"

Ghosting of the stripes that were previously on the hood when it was the yellow DeFrank/Broussard/Depuis car.

Painted front bumper and chrome rear bumper. There are multiple pics of the car with this Paint/Chrome combo.The front bumper has a few unique bends/prior damage that can be seen in the 1978 Hot Rodding Cover and the current pics of the car. This makes sense, because Jim DeFrank told me he acid dipped the front bumper to make it lighter therefor removing the chrome then painting it when the car was painted yellow.

In a conversation with Dave Dupuis yesterday, he told me about the crash he had in the car at Gainesville. There is evidence of body repairs on the car where he told me he fixed it.

Dave Dupuis also told me the last of the VIN on this car without me telling him. It apparently is an early car.

Anyone that has any other info please chime in. We are doing a full documentation/Timeline on the car, and the owner is trying to decide what way he wants to paint/letter the car. We already have approval from one of the previous owners to copy the paint/name on the car.

Curious to see the replies and ideas on how to restore the car.

Dennis Maurer is Judy's former husband. He has photos of Judy's cars on his website.

The website shows his business number as 480-540-1679. I would give him a call.

Is this the car Judy tagged a guard rail and damaged the drivers side quarter panel near the tail light area?
