Just checking back on this great thread in case I'd missed any postings but no such luck.  Pat's post and info relayed is quite simply some of THE best from the good old world so I thought I'd kick this thread back to the top/hoping for more posts on the subject car or anything from Pat including his '61 W-car.  Below are the subject Nova pics again that 9566 BA posted but in likely date progressive order w/ added scoop etc, note middle pic is Ramblin' Rose 1 but first/last Ramblin' Rose No. 1?   ~ Pete .

I will call Pat and ask him about the Ramblin Rose number differences. Jim McKay like the Nat King Cole song that's why he named the car that. Also he used that as a selling hook as he put a rose in the front seat of every car he sold when he delivered it. He also had a catchy little jingle that I have to ask Pat again how it went. Its odd that they took the time to change how #1 was written . On the early picture it has engine by which I cant read, and was removed on the later pics.

That picture is from Green Valley Raceway in Ft Worth TX. They are lined up for the Top Stock Eliminator. He had to spot his 327 a bunch. As Pat put it" We lined up , I launched and saw him in my rear view mirror lifting the front end and then dying! Easy win for me. "
Trophy he won, by the way that was a 427 camaro https://www.yenko.net/forum/attachme...1&d=1615763091 Last edited by 9566 BA; 03-15-2021 at 12:05 AM.
