Anyone Know "Too Costly"

Eddie brought this car over to Salt Lake’s Bonneville Dragstrip in the spring/summer of 1966. when I was also running my car in A/S. There were several of us in A/S including some Hemi Chargers and other Nova’s. Needless to say he cleaned all our clocks as we were just street cars with cutout or headers and recap slicks. He had already won the Winters Nationals as it was hand painted on the car much like the other lettering. I’m pretty sure he also flat towed it over from Elko. The story was he beat Jenkin’s Nova for class to get into the eliminator when the Grump pulled it out of first gear too soon on the leave.
