Re: How about that Marv Ripes!!!
Back in 1970 I saw an ad in National Dragster for a high stall converter for a Ford from A-1. I bought it and was the first Ford to run an A-1 it worked so good I didn't want to put his decal on. From that day until I quit racing Super Stock in 1975 that was the only converter I used. I had a problem a week before the Gatornationals and brought the car to Gainesville with the trans out and when I got there Marv was there with my converter. Everytime I went to the Winternationals I would go by Marv's shop for a vist. You never had to worry if Marv said he would do something he did.
