It sure is....probably from Doug's book and good likelihood it might Carl Rubrecht's picture. I know Doug uses Carl for a lot of the stuff in his books.
I was looking for a Fram filter on Hedrick's car........" I use them on the street, and I use them on the strip".... GM_427_Racer any leads or luck???

If you look on the inside of the rr !/4 glass you can see a "Super Sock Owner's Association" sticker. Darwin Doll, ex-Division tech director used to run a series for the Super Stockers independent of NHRA series. There is a sticker on therr1/4 glass of my Camaro when Bill Izykowski owned it the '69 season. There was a "Pro Stock" type series NOT PRO STOCK that started at Pamona, anyway Bill won that local "Pro Stock" and in Stock Eliminator in 1968 and was Car Craft's Driver of the Year for 1968. Now let's see if I can get those pictures to appear here.......anybody wanna give me odds?

Cool Pictures, I did not do a lot of traveling to races in my younger years, so I did not start seeing a lot of the legends until the mid 1970's.
I do have a picture in my garage of the yellow 1969 Yenko Hedrick Camaro leaving the starting line with the slicks smoking and it had SS/E 929 on the window. GM |

2017 Racing Season is Over
I realize this thread started out as looking for my original 1969 Yenko, VIN 124379N663539, and I assume no one has found it or I would hope they would have updated this thread with its whereabouts. With that being said and since my 2017 racing season has ended as of October, and I have some time on my hands I thought I would do an update on the 1970 Baldwin Motion Camaro clone that I race as a B/SA, in NHRA Stock Eliminator. As you can see in the pictures, the car leaves the starting line very well, with a best of a 1.28 sixty foot time, which is really excellent for an almost 3600 lb all steel car on 9 inch slicks with a 402 cid engine rated at 375 HP (NHRA rated at 400 HP).
I would like to give credit where credit is due, Davey Summa, of Summa Performance in Enon Valley, Pennsylvania did the roll cage and chassis work and deserves to be acknowledged for his fine effort. If you would like to see what it feels like to go for a ride in this car, I have uploaded a video on You Tube, go in the search bar once you get on You Tube and type in; "2017 Maple Grove Raceway", look for a file that is 2 and a half minutes, it starts out doing the burnout and takes you all the way to the scales after the run is completed. Make sure you make it "Full Screen" in the lower right hand corner and watch for the WIN light on the wall, just past the finish line. Hope you enjoy it and if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. Here are a few still pictures. |
