I have a copy of that article but would love another copy. You can contact me at the e mail address Dwight posted. In addition, I would love to find that car. My father sold it to a racer in Ohio back in 1971. Made me so mad I didn't talk to him for a month.

SAMATCOTOOLSMAN, thanks for the post, but I don't think it's the Suspinski car. I've looked at few pictures of that car and their paint scheme is a little different from what I remember, however they could have had different layouts at times.

When I got the car it had "La Haies Autmotive Research, Lansing" & "K and D Performance" on the front fender and "Shadowoods" on the hard-top sailpanel if that helps anyone recall. I will post the pictures on here of the lettering that was on the car as soon as I can upload them to a server.

Thanks, Dave Outten

Dave you seem to be buying up all the cars from this town. I assume you still have my wagon?

Sure do Bruce! I'll try to post a recent photo ASAP. BTW, while I'm waiting on parts for the stocker engine I threw together a "everything on the garage floor that wasn't broken in half" engine so I could go out to play. Stupid thing went 10.82@120+ at 3625#
