Maybe they both named thier cars the same????? Phil Marsh had the same red and white paint design Jenkins had at the time and had Swampys Toy lettered on the doors just like Jenkins car. It caught Grumpys attention at English Town and Da Grump started up the coversation with Phil while I was looking at it. I dont recall seeing the car very many times (maybe 2 times) after that as it wasnt very competitive and George had way better luck with his combo. I do recall a small picture in Car Craft magazine of it around 73 or 74(?) when I first worked for NHRA Div. 1. I never saw Georges car in person either but saw many pictures in National Dragster. It could be both had the name.
