I believe I saw that car or one similar to it at Super Chevy Indy back in the 80's. There was a black and white photo of it in the magazine coverage of the event. I think it was an L78 car.

Just got this info.Still as raced. Only comes out for the Michigan Super Chevy show every year. He says it has never been titled to run the street. All miles 1/4 mile at a time.

We did get to have this car at earlier Berger Shows and I was privileged to be able to ride in it and do a big SMOKY BURNOUT!! It is as it was built!! AWESOME CAR!!

Title still in Mike Wawee's name who was the Performance Sales Manager and raced the car from day one.
