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.

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.

Just won Best Engineered at St Louis.
Put it in Modified with a period correct Pro Stock hood scoop, only way to make it even cooler.

Definitely a unique car, especially with the reproduction Motor Wheel Flys. It's like the SS/GT Shelby Cobra from a few years ago. Now, someone needs to build a Vega, and they can match race. I noted from the NHRA points page that it has only been out to LODRS races before this weekend.
