Shelby,

Good luck to you, I hope you can convince NHRA to ammend the rulebook so the Tri 5 chevys can race in stock. I always thought that the cars most responsible for 'stock car racing' either on the track or the street in the early days were the '55-57' Chevys. And they are the best looking cars ever produced imo.

Terry is correct, '55 Chevys are allowed to race stock in IHRA. One is campaigned by a fellow from the mid west -Kansas City or somewhere, his last name is Hillig I think. It's a crate motor car, all black hardtop-one of the nicest restos/race cars I've seen. He has a brother that races a crate motor '68 camaro, C/CM I think and lives in the Carolinas. Silver paint, just as nice as the '55, and used to run it with a 327 in E or F stock .
