First pic I've ever seen of Bob's Mustang II in red and white paint. Anyone else?

To the best of my knowledge, Don Grotheer never had a 1970 Plymouth Duster.

Hmm, perhaps it was another racer out of the south west, I'm thinking maybe it was Irv Beringhaus. I know I read it some wheres that it was someone else's car before these guys got it, so whose was it then, anyone know.

I saw it run at the NHRA Grandnational near Montreal. This pic is from that race, the "S" on the water barrels stands for "Sanair" the drag strip outside of Montreal, actually "St. Pie. Quebec, Canada". The name "Hauler" was still visable on the doors. It was more orange and white than the red you see in the pic. Wasn't this car the runner up at Indy the year before with Herb McCandless at the wheel.

It was short lived and one of the only cars he could not get to "work". John Lingenfelter had no problem making that Monza work after Glidden was done with it.

After the fact Bob said that he did not check the relationship to between the timing pointer and the harmonic balancer. He had the timing so far off the car would not get down the track. It has been a long time but didn't Lingenfelter run a 351 Cleveland in the Monza?

I think I've seen this car before... Being around cars like this when I was younger is
probably why I don't live in a bigger house. LOL.

One of my favorite PS cars from the 70s was the R-M-S '78 Camaro small block. Anyone have some pictures of this car to share?

I still remember seeing the Shag Monza PS for the first time and thought to myself, wow now that's a good lookin' car...always liked the Pro Stock & Funny Car Monza bodies after that.

From deep in the archives of my basement ... I knew I had a picture of this ... 1979 magazine article. I wish I could resize it a touch larger.
