Love this one. Old school early 80's SS car, with leaf springs.

I really respect the fact that this car retains all of its "last time it was raced" characteristics. To me it's a shame that many of these cars have had their period correct chassis, roll cage and motor mods removed in favor of as delivered stock components. Late 70s throughout the 80s is the era of SS racing that I liked best since the leave spring / ladder bar cars did huge nose bleed wheelies that carried out forever.

Be kind of interesting to see a few of them parked side by side.

Original,as delivered.
Early S/S
Early Pro Stock
Today SS/AH

Sort of an evolution comparison.

Well, yeah it does. Just trying to find a nicer way of sayin' it. I've been told "photo session" can be defined as a long four letter word.

Early Super Stock, i.e., day two, sometime in 1968.

I had forgot about this one.
Anyone have some info on it?? What car it turned into? Track??
Looks like Bolland was a multi faceted operation. Running both a SS/BA Dart & a SS/C Camaro. Owned by same guy or Maybe "in Family" operation. ie: brother,son, etc. I Can't make out the engine builder
A very rare pit truck too. 58-9 Cameo?

This photo was taken by Bob Snyder at the 1968 Super Stock (Magazine) Nationals held (sometime in mid-1968) at New York National Speedway.
