Here's a few more of Bob Marshall's cars. In one of the photos you can see 2 cars with the same paint scheme. At one time I thought he had 3 of them painted the same. I don't know if they are all A990 cars.

The 2 hardtops shown here were the 2% altered wheelbase A/FX cars ran at the NHRA Winter Nationals in 65. Note the 10 inch tires and the taller hood scoops used on all of the 10/15 inch AWB cars.

I took that shot of the Jenkins & Serpa '65 Plymouth at Seattle in '85,,, don't know the history of the car or who it belonged to originally,,, or whats happened to it since then. I just remember it being a good working car that I liked and I was waiting for the DeFrank & Cohen Cuda to come up in the next pair, as you can see.

Danny, you took some nice shots back in the day...did you ever get your own photo album made up for these old photos of yours on webshots or photobucket, so other people can link to them and post them on Forums like this one...I know there are some people that don't like it when other people use their photos, but there are some that don't mind. At least they had the foresight to take these great shots back then so people today could enjoy seeing them...so to all the great photographers from back then, good job guys and thanks for the memories...it's better that some of the old hot rod magazine coverage back then.

Danny,

That car was bought new by my grandfather (Harry Holton) and campaigned as "The Hemi Countdown." Through (if I recall correctly) 6 different owners, the car never left Stanislaus County. Owners included Eric Bell, Fred Frias, and the Jenkins Family. We bought it back in '90 or '91 from Bob Jenkins and ran it for a few years. The car stayed in the shop and was tore down for an anticipated restoration that we never got around to. Eventually, the car was sold to Mark Vieira who completed the car. Last I saw he had it for sale, but I'm unaware of it's current status/location.
