That is my car!!! I have had the car since 1975, and a pet peeve I have is, people want to know whose car it was, and I do understand they want the history, BUT there are a lot of us, that have had these cars much longer than the people that originally had them, and taken much better care of that history, than they did, because at that time, it was just a race car, and they'd get another one next year. So I tell them it is mine. When I got it in '75, it was nothing, but a cut up Super Stock/Pro Stocker. With the help of my friends, and relatives, we have rebuilt it twice, where Preston Honea/Ray Rixman Dodge, and the people that had it after him, did nothing but thrash, and trash it, as a race car.
I don't really have any pictures of it, because when I contacted Preston Honea, I was told several different stories, about pictures he had of it, but the end result was I never got any! I would be interested in seeing the picture, and if you want any info on it, feel free to contact me.
Thanks,
Dan Morgan
