So to answer your 1st question - So.......Not ‘made up’ - You’d have to ask DC how he arrived at the ‘likely contenders’.

I decided on the B/SA Ben Wolf Pontiac entry after discussions with DC - there were three viable 1969 Pontiacs that met class. If you think the Firebird is a better ‘fit’ - I’ll change the entry - after all, all we have is the Driver, the Brand and the year model.

Now that I'm back:
To clarify:
1. See my longer reply 29 October (edited a couple times including this morning 30 October)
2. I made my lists/tcolor tables from a writeup in Drag News, some of the pages were hard to read. I'm pretty sure of most of the cars but if a box is shaded pink, it means it's a GUESS - sometimes I'll guess several "maybe's" hoping to jog a memory somewhere.
3. The Drag News writeup looks like it was done pre-teardown, so some cars got DQ after my Drag News results. When Rat found that final list as posted, the two conflict.
4. So, I've updated my color tables to include all the DQ's which changes some of the winners.

Ben Wolf & Dick Simon cars/engines are still a mystery.
We can guess, and for sure some cars DONT fit, but dont know yet what they actually ran.

I'm glad this thread is so active - we'll figure it out!
