Does anyone know who has Dwight's car now? I thought Richard Feldman's car came from Div 4?

Got in touch with Gail (Red) Cox. She is going to send me some pictures of the cars and some from her days a Carlile, AR track.
Swamprabbit, I so look forward to seeing those photos. I've been Googleing for photos of Carlisle and there is very little out there about that track. It truly is a "ghost track".

Raced at Carlysle many times. Dwight was most always there. Lots of fun back then.

You could always contact Dennis or Dean Oliver. They had to endure living in the same town with Cox. Or the world-famous "Buffarilla" - Billy Herndon - at Herndon's Small Engine Repair (870) 673-1106. Billy was the one who kept Dwight pointed in one direction at a time.

I saw the car at a bracket race in Tulsa 2 years ago. Sorry I don't recall what the guy's name was though.

Last place I saw the car was behind Steve's Speed Shop on Geyer Springs Rd. M-A-N-Y years ago. Maybe late 80's????
Dwight also built a convertible 66 Impala.
White with black top.

You are correct on all. To my surprise, in 1994 is was there, because I was in school at UAMS. I think I surprised a few people in the store being able to pick it out after all those years. I just kept walking toward a window until Robbie asked me what I saw. I saw the fronts, backs, and tattered insides of those cars so much, I could spot them anywhere!! LOL!!!

This was the only time I can remember that one of my dad's Super Stock cars wasn't painted plain old white. It only stayed this color one season I believe, which was in 1973, then back to white.

IIRC he got the car painted for free.


Do you have any pictures of the Challenger?
