In 77 Mike McKinney won ( B/S ) class and stock eleminator at the US Nationals.

I own the car that Truman took in trade and posted the pictures of the 77 class win with my car now.

The article is wrong that the car was burgundy when Truman received it.
Thanks Todd !

I think between you & Brent, ya'll have got all the facts straight for me.

At this time I just have one more question. I just saw this pic of one of Truman's "Hard Times" Birds with a multicolored paint job. Had never seen this pic before. So, which car was that ? And what year did it have that paint job ?
