Danny's car went to Scandinavia. Mike's car was sold to Dick Desmond.
Sloan's car is still in Michigan. Terry Nagle owns it. Denny Nelson in Minn- esota also owns one, not sure where he bought it, possibly Maxwell's. I'm the idiot that put 27 H.P. on the combination over 12 years. That's why it's in Super-Stock now. By the way Travis, you had the quickest run in 2012 in SS/LA at Brainerd - - great run with your Camaro. |

The combination needs Desmond and Nelson to write letters, that'll help the HP in Stock. I haven't run the car in Stock since 2007. Still own the fast Parsons engine that got all the HP. By the way, my car is an original one owner GTO - hatchback - 4 speed car. I'm the second owner. This year will be the 19th season on the car - all with Parsons power.

Mark, Bruce Walton's car was originally campaigned by Mr. Rock Running, I believe that Bruce still owns the car in Ohio. He hasn't run in NHRA Stock Eliminator for a number of years. The last I heard, the car is parked. That car has been a race car from new. Many of the 74's were cloned from flat hood Venturas, however. That car only came with the 350 cu. in. 2 bbl. V8. The GTO only offered the 4 bbl. V8 with the functional ram air hood scoop. What makes the combination effective in Stock is the intake is the same as the 400 ram air engine. It's almost too large for the 350. I'm referring to the 4 bbl. intake.

Jack Matyas had a quick '74 also. I believe his caught on fire, however.

That car is here in the valley, although I haven't seen or heard from him in a while.
