Default Re: "Stock-Look" Stockers

Yeah, I'm one of the old school guys. When we started racing, most all the race cars had a name & decals. We referred to the cars by the car's name, not the owner or driver's name. The car's name seemed to give it it's own personality.

When I built my first '68 Bird, I didn't even know where to buy all the decals. I got the Lunati cam decals out of the cam box, the Stocker cam came in. Picked up the others at NAPA or wherever I could. Later became a speed parts vender, and found out where to get the decals. So, when I put the Bird back on the street, it had a lot more decals.

For you younger guys who don't remember it, Easy Lovin was a very popular radio song, back in the early '70's. It reached #1 and was song of the year, 2 years running, on the country charts, and made it to #17 on the Billboard pop chart.
