A990 Super Stockers

[Hemi Moose]

I THINK the one on right is Lloyd Wolford next is Ron Cheshire and on the left is Harris Mabry my thoughts...Later J,Smith 4621 racing.

Mr. Jimmy Smith wins the prize, for correctly identifying all three, Hemi Super Stockers! I talked with Lloyd today at his place in Jonesboro. I showed him the picture (and MSR). He was blown away by the old pictures.

Here are a couple of quotes off that message board with the '65 A990 Coronet Ron Cheshire owned back then...anyone else here know these people, and who owns the car now.

I raced with all those guys. Harris is a character not easily forgotten. Lloyd and Ron are truly some great people. A friend of mine and I almost bought a '68 Camaro C/SM car from Lloyd called the "Outhouse Mouse". That was in his days before the Hemis. Ron is someone I call a friend. I still have a business card from him when he worked for Southwestern Bell. Harris . . . well, Harris is a good ole country boy - none better.

Was it Ron Cheshire that drove the candy red 64 Dodge 330?

Don't know who's it is or if it's a real one but man, I would like one ride before I die!

Charlie, it is the same A990 car that you posted earlier on in this thread...it was originally called the 'Texas Rattler'...but if you do a search on this '65 A990 car and read the story about it you will see what happened to it.

Funny how the angle of a picture can throw off the idea I had already seen and posted that very car.
I read the restoration link.
What an outstanding effort!
From what they found to completed car......
I have done a restoration or two, or I thought I had.
Compared to that, I repainted something.
Post the link so the others can appreciate the work.
