Default 67 harrell/yenko/garfinkel car

ok, it might be extreme coincidence or not, but the odessa tx. record breaking superstocker sponsored by yenko at that time was dick harrell's car and driven by mike garfinkel at times, mike posted here that this car started out earlier in the year w/ nickey sponsorship and was actually a harrell / nickey built car...anyways a employee(tophat john) of dick shalla in detroit in 68- has a website and is a writer of some type, he wrote about this car in magazine's locally then and said it got sold to dick shalla personally, it had killer painted on the trunk lid, anyways they painted it at shalla's and put dick shalla sponsorship on it in large letters, it was driven at a few local races in 68 then sold used in 69 and painted completely red before being sold...now I was looking at pics of members rides at team camaro and overanxious has pics (vintage) of his 67 L78 rs/ss in 68 at the drags w/ dick shalla chevy sponsorship on it...so its either the same car or there was two 67 rs/ss BBs sponsored by shalla in 68, I only know of one so I assume he doesn't know its possibly dick harrell's car originally....wow, check out his pics of it on his webpage...

Hello all.

My father and I own the white '67 Over Anxious car discussed in this thread

The car is currently under restoration as the pics show.

There are two cars mentioned in the Racing Pulse article, Dad still has a couple of copies of it matter of fact

We are owners one and 4 I believe. I plan to start a website very soon showing the history and progress of the car.

Thanks.
Joe
