Is this listing accurate: "FGT/F '71 Pinto"

From St. Louis:
50 3307 FGT/F Billy Rowe, Eureka MO, '71 Pinto 9.621 10.10 -0.479"

I have found this entry listed at several other events, but I don't recall seeing it here, and I couldn't find any pictures of it at Drag Race Central or Auto Imagery.

Sure is! Here's a photo from the Rock Falls D5 National Open a few weeks back. Pretty sure it's a 352 Cobra Jet pushrod combination.

352 Cobra jet engine with a stick shift. Super cool car!

Billy is local and a good guy with nice stuff. Long tradition here - his dad Bill Rowe raced a genuine Shelby GT350 for many years with a lot of success at my local track. Billy's been around racing his entire life.

Wonder if the car itself is Pro Stocker from back in the day!?
