The last one I have from Raceway Park.
I´m going on vacation tomorrow morning and will be gone a little more than a week.
Give me some interesting info to read when I get back.

The Convincer II in Sweden !

That is a factory HemiCuda in the far lane. I think that´s the one that caught fire at Santa Pod, England, some years ago.

I'll try to find Pete Dedella around Middeltown, NJ. Also will find the window sticker showing its a 427 M22 car.

PS. sc69sam has some Raceway News on his desk with this car in them. Lets see them Sammy.

Kevin, that is a copy of the invoice from Holsey Chevrolet in Jersey City.

I have attached the ad I sent to the Swedish "Wheels magazine" before going to SCR9. When I came home I received just one call, but what a call. He knew where the Convincer was! The same guy had bought the race-rearend off my 1969 SS 396 Chevelle, so he knew me before.

Now I´m off on vacation !

I would like to go to New Jersey to visit Pete Dedella, Dan Rich and Joe Spino, if possible. But Pete has a secret phonenumber so I can´t get hold of him.
Kevin, could you or mabye John(4274speed) try to find out a way to get in contact with Pete ?

Thanks

I'm told Pete DeDella has moved to Florida. His old phone number from NJ is no good. I don't have any other leads at this time.
