The car Dennis has was mine. Dick never owned it and Al Provoast borrowed it to run at the 77 U.S. Nationals. I ordered it new from a local Olds dealer as a firethorn red and woodgrain 455 ci Vista Cruiser with the sun/moon roof deleted. I changed it to all black in 1980.
In 1976 I loaned it to Tom Carter who drove it to the U.S. Nationals and went to the Quarter finals in Stock before losing to Tom Reider. Then packed it up and drove home to Grand Rapids, Michigan. If I sound defensive I apologize but I've had people argue with me when I told them I was the original owner when asked.
