Default Re: Stick Racers !!!

Since the TH400 was available in the '67 Birds & Goats, there were not near as many stick cars used for racing. I only have pics of one of each, which shows the class lettering.

While lookin for pics for another thread, I ran across a pic of a '65 GTO ragtop SS/H stick car.

Will round up some '68 model Bird pics & add 'em to this post.

Pic #4 is Gary Moore's '68 Bird. I think I can MAY see SS/I(possibly) on the pass side window. And I know he drove at least 2 other stick Pontiacs. So, I think it's safe to assume this Bird was also a stick.

#5 is the green "Hard Times" Bird that Truman Fields bought new. It won Indy in '73, with Truman driving, & in '77 with Mike McKinney driving. You can see "Roy and Mike McKinney" on the door.

#6 is the "Break Away" D/S Bird.

#7 is the "Ram-bunctious" C/S Bird.

#8 is the Dynamic Automotive D/S Bird.

#9 is the Key ragtop Bird.
