There was also another Hemi Cuda in the Altoona area, Updyke & Thomas from Tyrone. It was bought new at the CP dealership in Tyrone....the name of the dealership escapes me now. The car was later owned, and, I believe is still by Clayton Wright, and he has been very successful. It was for sale at http://freerevs.com/car/286315#main Sam Pannutty owned it for a while.

Both cars were regulars at old Peterson Memorial Dragway near Altoona, and also on the Division 1 Super Stock circuit.

I'll see if I can get ahold of some guys and find out where they went....you guys are really taxing my memory.
Steve, thanks for the info...I did here that there was a Sox & Martin connection with this B029, but I just figured they had their motors or some other work done by them, I didn't realize that they bought up some of the old Sox & Martin equipment...but keep digging to see what else you can come up with.
