Default Re: Best Pontiac Powered Super Stockers

Also don't know who fielded the 1st competitive '68 SS Bird.

Don't know of one that has been actively racing, in recent years. Chris Stephenson ran his '68 Stocker, in SS some. But I won't count that one.

Have picks of a couple of John Angeles/Pete McCarthy '68's. May be the same car, with 2 different paint jobs. Don't know when it was last raced.

And, I think I've shown pics of the Mike Mckinney '68. Have it in red, & blue. Assume it's the same car. Best time I could find for the car, Roy was driving. Ran a 10.41, which was more than .500 under, but missed the '99 Indy field.

So, any know who may have ran one in SS, in the '60's.

I suppose the Yellow Bird is the only small tire '68 SS Bird I have pics of.
