I have been all over Draglist.com list of 73 SRD Vegas. I am down to two cars that are 73 and would possibly have white front suspensions and a red Dana 60. I talked to one and he could not remember the color if the diff in his car. The other died about two years ago. Pete threw a big name at me. But I quickly ruled that out because his car was a 72 and mine is a 73. So the search goes on. I have a few leads I am working on and waiting on. The biggest problem now is people's memories.

I will have the car next Saturday July the 8th at the York Nostalgia show. I have also learned the car was bought in the early 80's in the Chicago Illinois area it was white and blue and called Dream Weaver.

Did you see the early 80's listings for Arnie Olivas w/ a '77 Vega "Dream Weaver" on Draglist pages 73&74.
If the same car, obviously the '77 update styling is what's being referred to also this indicates model years noted on Draglist aren't necessarily the actual year of the vehicle so you may be missing earlier entries if searching only '73 cars?
Keep digging and good luck!

Pete, isn't the link you provided for a TA/FC (Funny car?)


(I could be reading it wrong) :)

You're right Bruce but could be from the same group or maybe they know of the other Dream Weaver SRD car?
Great backtracking so far and looking forward to more info and history!

Okay..I see what you meant :)

There's a Rod Weideman in Lathrop, CA age 70 that may or may not be who you're looking for.

Looking for one in Wisconsin. The engine builder I talked to did not have his number. All the look ups I tried showed either a Rob Weideman or Rod Wideman in the Appleton, Neenah area.

We delivered the car to the York show yesterday. It is under the tent inside of the track. Had a good time talking to the guys that were there. Looks to be a good show.

Looked this over real good yesterday at the show . Very cool, So im guessing its one of the pictured cars on the list that haven't been accounted for ??
