Here are a couple photos taken in the teardown barn by Bill Truby. They were taken at Bowling Green in the 70s.
Anybody recognize anybody? Is that Wesley doing the tech? Tom Sheehan ![]() ![]() ![]()

Dave ,No I don't for sure. 24-25b #, maybe. I don't save all that old stuff. Travis has all those old rule books. Maybe he'll see this . X/S became a FWD class later on.

In the first photo, the guy leaning over the valve spring tester in the background is John Biedenkapp. He was the Div. II Tech Dir. then. X/S was 23-23.99.

That doesn't look like Pritchett to me in the pic. Is that '65 Chevelle convertible Jimmy Gower's? Not Wesley in the pic either.

Dave,
If anybody would have a picture of the comet it would be Tom Kasch. We are all from the same area and I remember that car. Steve |
