When I bought this car I was backing out of the drive way with the car on the trailer when the owner came running back out of the house. Said he thought I should have this. Cool picture. The car is now fully restored and is a frequent visitor at the Fred Gibb Memorial Show. Note the neat plate and photo date.

Just an update on this thread, I once again have an M22 L72 Biscayne back in my garage. I purchased the car from Tony (Scuncio) back in 2007, sold it to Barry (69L78Post) in 2009, and just bought it back from Barry this spring. Time to move forward with restoring the car. When I first owned it I did a ton of research on owner history, and was able to track its life from 1977 to present, when it was owned by Michigan Drag racer Dick Ross. It was his Saturday night street race car. No one suspected a 4000 pound brown taxi cab with dog dish hubcaps would run 11:40 at 118 MPH. Since buying it back I have located the original owner, who ordered the car brand new, and raced it under the name &quot;The Whirlwind&quot;. Waiting on some photos, maybe film of the car from back in the day at Lapeer and various other Michigan tracks.The original owner is a very smart man, at the time a Flint GM worker,who knew exactly what he was was putting together when he ordered this car. With only 9000 original miles ( 1/4 mile at a time) he has always regretted selling it to Ross. As his health is not the best, my hope is to have the car far enough along so that he can drive it once again. I want him to power shift it like he did when it was new. A very rare car with really interesting owner history.

Very cool car with even cooler history:-)

Best to invite the original owner for a visit and get the stories first hand. (Time waits for no man, don't wait)
