Referring to previous page about Buick's, My 67 Buick GS (all steel 3600 lbs) with a Stage II 455 ran 10.90's back in the 70's was named "Animal Eater" ran at National on Long Island and E-Town, also a few times in Connecticut. I believe the car is in Long Island and would love to find the car. It has been converted back to street use.

WE are looking for a '67 GS for our Buick Campaign. If that car can be found and restored as the "Animal Eater" it would fit nicely into the campaign.

I know this is a very old thread...but just came accross it...

Yep...the 55 Chevy was the first All American (Was the Dutch Boy something or other first). Then there was a 1966 Chevelle (The AA 2), the 1965 Chevelle (The AA 3).....and many..many years later (during the 80's)...The All American IV. It was the only bracket car....a 67 Nova with a "292" Inline 6....and the one I remember the most, since I was the crew!! ;)

Story I heard...and well, take it for what you want (lol)...was that Kenny bought the 55 cause he couldn't beat it. :eek:

Back in 1963-64 I ran a green 61 Ford Falcon with a 289 in it, called the "Tin Lizard". I ran it a few times at a couple of local tracks Gragway 42, and Quaker City, until I figured out how overmatched I was... Goats and Mopars eating my lunch regularly....

And now we have a 2009 Drag Pak name "MegaManiac" appropriate for both me and my son Drooze...
