Since there has been a lot of threads on older Pro stock dusters on here. Does anyone have any pictures of Randy Humphrey's 74 duster? IIRC it was Orange with anodized rims. Really nasty looking car. He sold it to Sol Cameron in Ft. Lauderdale. It was in the early 90's that I could have (and should have bought if from Sol but I chose to buy a 69 cuda instead. Sol then sold it to a local guy Jeff Bonebreak. Jeff then sold it to someone up north (Pa. maybe?) I saw it for sale a couple of years ago for the tune of 85K running a small block. When Sol owned it he call it "The Tasmanian Devil". Someone on here had a picture of it at Turkey Rod Run back in the early 90's. There isn't any pictures on the net that I can find. This is one of those "ones that got away" for me.

I looked at the link you provided, I don't
rememeber the Duster, but I do remember the
Volare, the motor was from Lambeck, the headers
were built by a guy in Placentia CA and he
hauled it around in a enclosed box car hauler.

I have several shots of that car, a red one, in one of my photo albums with my old photos. I took them at Indy in 74.

Give me a day or two and I will scan it and get it posted.

Steve that would be great. I'm sure Stewart would like them for his collection. That was a Butler built car. I'm kicking myself in the rear still for not buying it. And I knew what it was at the time too.

Steve - I sure would like the privilege of scanning all your photos, cleaning them up, burn them to a disc and return them to you NO CHARGE.

Historical photos HAVE to be saved and shared

Stewart....I'm sure that can be arranged. PM me and we'll make arrangements.

There are even some here of that Welsake powered Colt wagon the Rod Shop ran in D/G. Remember that one?

This may be Randy's Duster after it was sold. Sure looks like it...

Funny, about 5 years ago I bought an open trailer from a circle track truck guy in Corona, CA. His dad had a "an ex-Pro Stock" Duster with a Hemi and Lenco. Dana...and all the makings of a state of the art 74-75 Duster Pro Stocker. Car was all white with Monoqueue (sp) wheels. Anyway the guy claimed it was Randy's NEW car for 76 that was never ran as he built the Volare. Claimed it was running 8.60's as it sat there.

yep that's the car. Jeff had it at Turkey Rod Run for sale after he bought it from Sol. Jeff sold it to a guy in Pa. for around 5000.00 as a roller. That was around 1992. I ended up buying the remainder of Sol's racing parts and cars in the early 20000's.

Chris,
Bob Porter in OH has Randy's old Butler built P/S Duster. It is white and has a B1 engine in it now. I don't think it has been raced in a while. He did have it for sale a few years ago in MCG.

I think he was trying to do a 'stoppie'. You know, nail the front brakes and dangle the rear in the air.

Dave, that was a one of 6 Butler built state of the art Pro Stocker in '74. Tube chassis, magnesium this and titanium that! That car is a holy grail.

I saw it back a few years ago when the guy had it for sale in MCG, asking 85K.
