Dave Reuland just posted this info.

So, that means that the '73 GTO that Mick Leiferman raced was indeed SD455 powered, but did not come from the factory that way.

Just found this one.

It's a '74 T/A, which is said to have had 455SD power, running F/SA, @ this '79 Canadian Molson Grandnational race.

I suppose it's the only Pontiac Stocker I've ever seen with a big #1 on the door.

Can't remember if I've asked this question, or not.

If I have, I don't remember the answer.

I have this picture labeled " '61 Unknown".

Can some of you older guys tell me this guy's name ? :confused:

I was told on a FB group it was Harold Ramsay.

So, this is also Harold Ramsey, with the "Big Chief" car ?

I suppose the driver name Bill Blair, on the silver Tempest, is a new one to me.

Would like to know where that "Class Champion" race took place, which is mentioned on the car in pic #3. ?

Have read that an M/T Tempest won A/FX @ Pomona in '63. If a Tempest also won A/FX @ Indy, I'd like to know about it. And, if that winning car was the one in your pic #3, I'd like to know that.

If you go here you can read about Bill Blair's car.

Here's a couple of pics that were just posted, of a Bird I've never seen.

Has Ridge Runner Auto Centers on the door. Looks to be a '74 T/A, which was running E/SA. I assume that means it was SD455 powered.

On the rear windshield is written: "Car in Tow". I assume that means they pulled it to & from the track with a tow bar. Been there & done that.
