Wish I had some pictures of the other stuff he had....33 Ford 2dr sdn, chopped, 327 fuelie corvette motor, 4speed, Had that car around 69-70.....man it was bad and fast....! In 72-73 he had a 57 Nomad that had almost every available option..He bought a brand new crate LT-1 and turbo 400 and put in it, It ran in the 12's with the a-c still hooked up.The list goes on and on. Back in the mid to late 80's we saw a truck in Ark City that resembled his 32 but it had a sbc in it instead of the Hemi. He had the truck when we lived in Manhattan Ks.
