1963 Plymouth savoy tom ward or bud spears
 
Does anyone know about the 1963 Plymouth savoy run by Tom ward then by bud spears in Florida? I do know tom ward called the car tommy's toy and won the 1973 ihra nationals ss/ea in lakeland Florida.
Bud spears purchased the car around late 73 to early 74. Bud painted the car blue and red and lettered with stark motors parts? Any information or in formation on the 73 nationals would the helpful. I just purchased the car and want to restore it

You can get hold of Tommy Ward through the SSSSA (Southern Stock/Super Stock Association) link further down the home page. Tommy is in central Florida and Bud Spears must have lived not to far from Gainesville,


There was a '68 SS/AA Hemi Dart that I believe was also named "Tammy's Toy" that ran IHRA, but I don't recall where they were from or if they were associated with the '63 in any way.

Tammy's Toy was owned and raced by Marvin Graves. I believe he was from Michigan though

Sent you an email jim. And I do believe bud raced the car at the gatornationals in Gainesville. There were some nice time slips from Gainesville in the car when the previous owner purchased the car. Thank you for your info.

Don't know about the '63 but the '68 dart was/is owned by Marvin Graves, last I saw him he lived in Anniston AL.
