Snooky Bullock had a number 76 that the 7 and 6 were integrated together. Calvin Gilstrap always called it the "Musical Note"

Len Faas' #27 King O Lawn Chevy. Beautiful car driven by the California Cowboy Ron Rea at the time I remember.
I'm thinkin maybe Gary or Steve Howard was in it also but my memory's a lil foggy on that.

That was the Dan Tucker owned car that had a long string of consecutive feature victories at Haubstadt, thirteen in a row I believe.

The Monotreme

My supermod driven by Mike Fedorcak. The car won at Toledo in 1984 (beat a Flintstone Flyer) and crashed and burned there in 1985.

Monotreme is the official name of the group of mammals to which Duckbill Platypus belongs. . . . . . a long story for that one!

I remember in the early to mid 70's going to Paragon with my my dad and our brand new # 97 shores car when Larry Martin and or Alan Bar drove for us and Keith Ford was running the Big Bertha. Wow many moons ago. I wish my dad could have been around for the last 12 years of my career while I had the privilage of driving for Tony and Mille Epperson.
