Re: Older Stockers
Based on inflation:
$800 of 1970 dollars would be worth: $4,733.73 in 2012 $800 of 2012 dollars would be worth $135.20 in 1970 |

Re: Older Stockers
Frank,
During my miss-spent youth in Fort Lauderdale, I worked for some time as a "gofer" for a guy who ran an old Willie Rells-built Pro Stock Firebird. Of what little I remember of that experience, I think Dempsey was a consultant on the project, at least at the beginning. He was definitely a legend in that part of South Florida, but it's been a long time since I've seen or heard from him. Lew

Re: Older Stockers
Lew, I'm not sure it's hard to tell, there were several guys that used those old Studebaker's back then, here's another one...

Re: Older Stockers
Frank and Lew,
Dempsey drove my uncle's Pro stocker in the late 80's early 90's Jeff Velde. My uncle told me a couple years ago that Dempsey had a car lot in south Florida and had passed away. Probably about 7 or 8 years ago. Bret Velde |
