Re: Super Stockers from the past...
Will began this post with 3 '69 SS Birds.
#1 is a small tire SS/F stick Bird.
#2 is Phil Monteith's RAIV '69 "Hatari" Bird @ Indy.
#3 is the John Angeles Bird, with daughter Keri driving. In 2000, she drove it into the 9's. it's been said that was the 1st 9 sec pass by a 400 Pontiac powered reg SS class car.
#4 is SS/G "Chief Justice", which is a small tire Super Stocker.
#5 is Art Peterson's '69 Goat. I have later pics of it, in 2 different colors. Don't know when he 1st raced it.
#6 is the "Packin Poncho". Apparently, Royce Fowler never ran it in NHRA. All the pics I've seen show it with a hood scoop. We saw it at the World Nats, in Amarillo, in either '75 or '76. It had a snorkle scoop. Have seen other pics showing it with a much wider scoop.
