I drove a bunch of those cars back in the day. Some of my freinds cars from up north...64 Hemi aluminum car of Tolle Polawic,65 A-990 of Jim Van Zee,, Gary Ostriches A990,Lee Smiths A-990, Bill Dagle A990. Any one have any pics of these cars?I have a bunch of old tapes of us running at Cordova, Cedar falls and Eddyville in the early 70's... thanks, Kurt H

Sam Hurley's "Mountain Hemi" was a beautiful car and I always liked Dick Landy's '67 WO23 Dodge.

I remember reading up on Bob Marshall's SS/BA "Dodge Material" a bunch in the car mag's. However, I also had the pleasure of watching Dennis Mauer's Blue & White Coronet at the drags in Denver back in the 70's & 80's.

Now knowing that Don Wann raced one of them too, makes me wonder if any of you have pics of his "Rettig Bro's" car, and of him...I'm certain he had a photo taken with his mustache in a "French Curl" like "Ringo" from the outlaw gunslinger days of the "Old West", but I don't have any of those 70's-80's magazines with me. Any collectors out here with that (I believe Super Stock & Drag Illustrated) magazine? I'm thinking he was racing in the Winter Nationals when the photo was taken, and he was running that Coronet in SS/BA. I told Steve that I remember seeing a photo of his dad like that, but I can't find the right magazine... :(

Dennis Maurer's with Motor Wheel Flys on it was my favorite.

A car I almost bought in 1970 was the black Coronet of Tom Crutchfield of Kocomo, In.

Another Coronet was from around Charleston,WV. belonged to the Boggess family with name I think was WV Hemi Charger. I remember a Dodge from Ohio I think that was owned by Furlongs I think.
