Probably find a few more Pontiacs here..
That's exactly what I needed ! Thanks !

That Mike McKinney win, Mick Leiferman RU, was in '77.

Rock Running was RU in '81. But I haven't found the Al Vanis win.

One of my favorite Pontiac wins was Jack Mullins' SS win against the factory Mopar driven by "Miss Mighty Mopar", Judy Lilly, in '75. That was also the year Mick Leiferman got the 1st of his 3 consecutive Stock RU finishes.

Only other Pontiac win I've noticed was Jim Wangers Stock win in '60.

Well, that is unless you count the Top Dragster win by Jack Chrisman, in '62.

Maybe the '74 winner listed as Vanisyl, is just a different spelling of Vanis, which is the way it was listed in the pic I posted. But, Rock Running is not listed as the RU. Maybe that pic was not the final. That would explain it.

Maybe the Rock Running pic, in the Indy winners circle, was for his RU finish in '81, not '74. .
