Ironic note I build another SS/AA car (not original) and sold that to Jerry Jenkins, who won the 3rd Hemi challenge with it.

Alan Halsey...Red Bank Auto Parts...now that's a blast from the past! I remember seeing his cars (also a SS/DA 1970 Hemi 'Cuda) at Raceway Park, Englishtown, NJ in the early/mid-1970s. Thanks for the photo!

Car still looks to be in great shape, what with being stored for 37 yrs.

I saw Bob's car at the Chryslers at Carlisle show in 1993 celebrating the 25th anniversary of the 1968 race Hemi A-body cars. Car hasn't changed a bit! :)

Easiest way of posting full size pictures is to have them stored in an account like photobucket. Then it's just a matter of copy & paste. Let me know if you need more assistance in doing it, as I'd love to see those pix. I'm no expert at this, just have enough knowledge to fumble my way through

I was at Bob's right after there last time at Indy looking at his trailer. It is a very nice car and he is a nice person.

There was an original B029 car on display in the nostalgia area at this weekend's national event in Seattle. Pictures show it is the former "Gentle Ben"- DeFrank & Cohen- Harry Holton car. It was sporting an original appearing engine, (valve covers, intake and carbs), but there was some upgrades to the car itself, such as M/T wheels and tires, Cheetah shifter, gauges, etc. The Cuda was painted all white. A cool car with some deffinate history. I see there is a photo of the car on post #85.
