Geo's Black & White - Tokyo Rose '70 (?) NOVA ended up here in Montana back in the mid '70's.
It was owned by a couple of guys named Taylor & Moudree out of Bozeman, Montana.
They continued to race it as a SS/IA-JA.
That car was damn quick and fast when compared to some of the other "locals" of the time.
I think it was Taylor that operated 'Speed Equipment World' speed shop on there East Main in Bozeman at the time.
They in turn sold it to Dick Erlandson from Lewistown, MT who painted it red and white, kind of along that previous black and white theme. Dick ran the car as a SS/KA for about 10 years....
Then it went to the Billings area, where it got a complete freshen up to become an E.T. Bracket car...
and it was painted a solid bright red.
I don't have any idea where it might be today?
