Re: 1972 remlinger olds
I remember this car very well, and the car that Jim raced for Jerry Remlinger before this one. Jim had a blue '71 convertible with a wild arrow/stripe paint scheme. Wheeler and Garey(Ron) travelled and pitted together during those years, when of course Ron was running with Norm Chesrown's backing. I was a team member on the Brothers White Pontiac team out of Valparaiso, IN. The Whites were on the factory program along with Truman Fields, Arnie Toftland, Gary & Charlene Wood, and others. We commonly raced against Ron and Jim in the same classes. We would defeat them, they would defeat us, all good, all fun. Both great guys.
