Is that Gene's '55 he is driving? Is the red car feeling sick?

Re: Bichelmeier/Pomona
 

Nova is not sick just resting, The 55 is his, used to be black and had junk yard dog on the side Tim Mcvay may have a old shot of it somewhere. Last time it was out west has to be over 30 plus years ago. Tom

That is Genes 55 2dr wagon he has had for a lot of years and the red car is not sick. Just thought it would be fun to take it being it was just painted by Dave and we had it back in one piece.

Just a great looking old dog, I hope it wins "Best In Show"

Re: Bichelmeier/Pomona
 

That is really a cool car! Someone mentioned it before I think, Fremont Nebraska racer Dave Cech just did the body and paint on her. He did our Nova and Bob Gipson's Corvette also. Probably the best kept secret in racecar makeovers! Nice!
