What are the odds? Thank you for posting that photo, and please thank David for sharing that bit of info! I'd sure like to hear any other recollections that you or David have about the L89 Chevelle. Was the L89 still Norwood's "demo" car at the time?

Gosh, if only the photo showed a little more of the Chevelle.

Thanks!!!

They would take a different car to the track every weekend. I have a photo of a Nova towing the funny car also. That's David sitting on the back of the ramp truck.

Yet another reason why Yenko.net is the best forum on the net. Bill said it right, needle in a haystack. Awesome reunion and cannot wait to hear more about Howard and his stories with the car. Awesome discovery!

Can you find out what track that was at and an approximate date?
