I've heard tell it never existed, but Gene Bichlmeier used to run this one in 1971.
Has anyone seen another one?

It is listed in the NHRA guide either in a 300 Delux or a Malibu. 358 HP factor X either 10.05 or 10.12. I never saw one on the road but its a legal SS/ I or J car.

There were alot of cars that supposedly never existed. Bernie Agaman's 'vette comes to mind as well as Ray Allen's LS-6 Chevelle rag-top that sold for a over a mil. at B-J. Coincidentally there were about 4 others there in the auction that year. When I was growing up, a guy in my neighborhood had an LS-6 El Camino 3-spd manual, which supposedly didn't exist ---and it kinda didn't as the dealer told him he needed to bring it back so they could put a 4-spd in it. I could go on, but the point is, that during the mucslecar era there were alot of "theoretical" cars one could have if you ordered it. Just 'cause you never saw one before doesn't mean it never existed..........

I'm sure there were a few of those cars sold. Probably loaded up, A/C , Powerglide cars.

There was a 66 Chevelle Wagon Stocker that ran the 396-325 combination w/ an automatic in Division 3 back in the late 80's early 90's. F/SA?
