I see now that Bob Glidden did indeed update the front facia on the Arrow while he still campaigned it so Gentilozzi most likely was the first to purchase the car from Bob as he once told me.

Re: 70's & 80's Pro Stockers
 
So which grill is the newer one, the black or silver grill...and where is this Arrow today?

a990hemi 10-23-2012 09:07 PM

Re: 70's & 80's Pro Stockers
 
The rectangular head lights and black grill with simple horizontal bars is the updated later model grill.

A few knowledgable and very well known race car collectors followed leads to my fathers red and silver Arrow with hopes of it being Bob Glidden's car as recently as 2 years ago. This leads me to believe that the Glidden P/S Arrow is still unaccounted for.

No Hagen's was an orginal. Not Gliddens.

Pretty sure that is Greg Anderson, the pro stock driver. I have photo of the gray Omni/Horizon pro stocker of Hagens that says on the door that Greg is the crew chief.
I will post it soon. They raced at Thunder Valley often.

Greg Anderson is correct. His name is on the hood scoop.

That's a 383 Hemi, as developed by Charlie Malyuke. It is a 383 block that has been adapted to accept the Hemi heads. The 383 and the Hemi share the same bore dimensions. Ronnie Sox and Dick Landy also ran these blocks in their Pro Omni's.

Steve,
Thanks for the answer. I forgot about these cars being in the old pounds per cubic inch system.

The article also says Dave Koffel helped in development of these motors...

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e2...n/ProMotor.jpg

Notice the machined boss on the right bank of the block used on 383 & 400 blocks...the 440 & Hemi blocks were more central located.

All of these John Hagen car pics are incredible. I was not aware of how sanitary and trick his race cars were. I may be wrong about this, but Reed Koepke had Hagen's Arrow in his possession a few years back and it was apparently still in mint survivor condition. Maybe Reed posts here occasionally?

I'd really like to see current pics of Hagen's Arrow ...primarily to see the current shape of the wheel openings on the rear 1/4 panels.

The very last Sox and Martin Pro Stock car entry, currently in Reed Koepke's possession.

the "Hagen Arrow" was on display at the Farmington, MN Mopar show a couple summers ago. I shot a few photos of it...
I am unsure of the exact time frame they were shooting for in their restoration, but it looked pretty cool to me.
(sorry about the lighting in the photos, the barn we were in had terrible lighting)

note the crew chief name on the hood scoop

the guy in the orange hat is the current owner.

Reed has a couple of the "mini pro stockers" which included the Hagan and Sox car. Go to the East Coast Drag Times Hall of Fame facebook page and click on mini pro stockers. Lots of photos.

Here's another P/S Arrow run by Barnett race cars, notice the large rear wheel wells on this one too...does anyone here know if they built this one or if they bought it off someone.

I had heard rumors that this was an ex Pro stocker, but don't know for sure. John Hazelrigg was a local mopar racer who always had some nice cars.

I didn't take these photos of Hagens Arrow.
Unsure who did...
I believe it was someone from the Jerico family.
