Dan,
Would you like me to ask some of the racers on Sunday? I could make it the track trivia question.

Andrew, The only reason I asked is because I was the second owner of this car and bought in the mid 70's , by the way it was a orignal COPO car,built into a Drag car by Bob Durenheim in Raritan NJ right next to Tony Fiel performance engine shop.Have Documents-original pictures of car.Thanks, announce away.

You guys are too much. By the way:Tony Fiel was at RP last Sunday for "The Old Time Drags and Rod Run", I interviewed him in the tower.

Andrew,
Whats old Tony Fiel been up to lately.One of my good friends Mike King or better known as Iron Mike,use to work for him in the late 70's,he did the boring and honing for Tony.He got the nickname Iron Mike from the boys at Fiels because he use to pick the bare blocks up by himself load them into custormers cars without a hoist or help from anyone.Remenber his 61 Corvette and his 69 Camaro.

Hey there, Tony Fiel was there running his Yellow '61 Vette. I asked a few people about "The Blue Mule" and track photographers Steve Bell, and Dave Milcarek remembered the car.

Thanks Andrew for asking at the track.I recently talked to Joe Corbo and he said a friend of John Hoffman's bought the car.I was trying to locate it at the time but hit a dead end.By the way I did call John Hoffman but because it was years ago when this car sold he doesn't seem to remenber the guy.He did take my phone # but to this day never called.

Would anyone happen to have Steve Bell's phone number or email addr. He took some photos of some street machines back in the '70's I would like to get photos copied.
Also wasn't there a Corvette also titled "Blue Mule"? I think I have pictures of it.
