The question was with regard to STOCKERS, not SS, so the list won't be very long.

I have always wondered about the factory supplied racecar bodies. I realize they cannot be licensed for the street, but do the bodies have some kind of serial number? What do you do about proof of ownership and what kind of paperwork is involved if the car is sold to another racer?

The factory cars do have a serial number of sorts. Our one car still has the identification number on it. As far as paper work. The cars were sold on a bill of sale. We still have the documentation for one of our cars that shows the original bill of sale along with some other additional paper work.

K/sa 307cube Div 5 recently purchased from Bill Prince. Long time racer Skip Lisell now making some upgrades and plans to have his wife Valerie drive because she can cut a lite! Car has been .80 under.

We have one. I sold it to Bob Dennis and got it back . I ran it in M/SA then put it in P/SA. Now its in O/SA. It's like part of the family.

Fred, I was waiting for you to join this. Seems to me your car has been around since inception. What do you know about the car Sammy Pizzolato raced in the '80s? I got to see the famous "windowed" 307 block for the first time in his car at Baton Rouge. I had no idea a manufacturer would do that. Of course, it was in pieces at the time.

About 10-12 years ago I purchased one of Pete Kost Cutlass Stocker from Jackie Hibbard and kept it for about 2 years and then at a IHRA race in Mooresville I was asked by Tim Griffith if I wanted to sell the Cutlass, So Tim was the new owner,He then sold it to Dean Ribero and then Dean sold it to Jason Silver. I talked to Jason in 2010 and he was still the owner.

Dwight,

Sammy's car became Karl Geist's car and eventually one of my friends bought it and brought it to California. It repeated its prior performance with the center main webbing shortly after it arrived. That was a spectacular explosion! Happily, it appears that those issues have been resolved. It has been very durable since we addressed the "window" mains and took advantage of some rules changes relative to stabilizing the valve train.
