Thanks for that info !

For a lot of these cars it's sorta like finding out who your ancestors were. But I like hearing that a car was passed on to, and raced by several guys, rather than reading about one that was taken off the track, and either never heard of again, or discovered many years later in a barn somewhere.

I may have posted this before. But, for this post it relates. On page 5 of this H-O Racing Specialties newsletter, it shows a pic of 2 '73 T/A's. Says Phil Szupka won the all SS/KA final, of the Fall Sportsman Championship race at Maple Grove.

For you guys who have a Mar '76 SS&DI mag, would love for one of you to scan or somehow make a good copy of the inside article about the H&M Bird, & post it here.

On page 4 of that H-O newsletter, it mentions Glen Tinsley & his SS/KA '73 T/A. I know that, for a time, he was hooked up with John Clegg & his Pontiac racers.

So, who has more info about Glen & his racing career.

I may have already posted these pics. But, a quick search did not show 'em. In the 2nd pic, looks like he was hard on the brakes. If you look close, you can see Tinsley & Osteen on the rear. I assume that Osteen was James Osteen. James worked for Gay Pontiac for 30 + years. He is said to have built most all the cars & engines raced under the Gay Pontiac name. I've read that he was also crew chief on the cars. So, I assume he went to most of the races, with the cars. Don't know if he ever drove any of the cars, or not. I think Gay Pontiac may have quit racing, by the time Glen was racing either of these cars.
