That's the late David "Possum" Surles from Fayetteville, NC.

Thanks Bob. Think I've found it. It's blue now with no frontend on it. Same car number in the same type of lettering.

Bob, I have that picture also, was that taken before or after the CheckMate on the side of the car?

The car has a 1988 NHRA chassis certification sticker on the roll cage and a NHRA participant decal from Coastal Plains 1988.

This is what the car looks like now. Notice the car number and the style of lettering compared to the original pic I posted. Any info on this car would be helpful.

This is the car that John Fogg ran out of Henderson, N.C. Car had Monocoques on it at one time, always hooked. Fogg got it from Surles I think. Ran SCRA until around 1989, stick only of course.
