"The Gypsy" was at Belvedere, Ill Mopar show a couple of years ago. Seemed to be a shell of it's former self...with lots of current technology on it. I talked with the owner Dave Tweedy. "What does it run?" I asked. He gave me a look and said, "It's much too valuable to race it." Wow, I couldn't beleive it. I admire people like Fred, and others who race their cars like they are ment to be. Keep the history alive on the track, not in some stuffy old museum.

I have a picture around here somewhere of that car. I sold Dave a
standard bore T/A block, with a close match on the build date for
that car, 6 years ago.

Steve, I think Al and his wife Jackie lived in Pennsylvania for a brief time. They were regulars at Maple Grove during my teenage pit rat days. The move was job induced, but they were always looking to return to the land of the Big Cheese. Obviously, they did just that! Kenny's Dodge was an old Mancini car, I'm sure that's where the Michigan thing comes from.
Steve, we definately grew up in the same parallel universe! Here's some more to stir the discussion key:
Norm Fryer's "007" SS/D Camaro
Ciccarone Bros SS/D Camaro
Bennett & Sirianni SS/I sbc Camaro
The "Pink Panther" SS/DA? or EA? 64 Plymouth
Vern Rowley's "Mr Speed" 64 Hemi Plymouth 4sp
Nate Cohen's "Nazy Crate" T-Bolt
Barry Curran's SS/IA "Super Shangri-La" big block Chevelle. VERY pretty car.
Dupree-Lupo-Croteu (sp?) 64 Dodge SS/BA Hemi This was the Fairbanks "shop car" Frank Lupo is now Dynamic Converters and has a 70 Hemi Cuda SS/DA-EA.
Bob Beckett's SS/OA 350 Olds Cutlass. Root Beer brown with not one decal on it, this thing could have crushed its soft record at anytime. Bob used to flat tow it on the turnpike with a mid sixties 4 dr Ford Galaxie.
That's enough for now, I gotta try and find my old snapshots!! RICK

I have the "Lau Raider Dodge" now. It was originally built by Tom Tignanelli and Ron Mancini came in later with his factory support to finish and campaign the car. Kenny sold his '69 Barracuda 383 car to buy it in 1970.

Kenny ran a service station in Shoemakersville and was also in the National Guard. He moved to Maine shortly after selling the Plymouth in 1978. I'm not sure where the Doctor thing came from?

I was also tracking the "Lau Raider Plymouth" down, but have since learned it was parted and a new one was built with the parts.

Last time I talked to Kenny, he was thinking about moving back to PA. He said he would be around at Christmas and expressed interest in coming to see the car. I really hope he does.

Steve, I was partners with Dave Mosley and we bought a 64 Max Wedge Dodge with both the aluminum and steel fronts from Tom Cunningham. The car was painted in the Manicni red and yellow paint like Luke Garners car except in had New Era potato Chips as on the doors. We had several class wins and set the record on IHRA. I have tried to track the car since I sold it. Englehart had it for a while but he didn't seem to want to tell me where it went from him. Any chance you have it? If so, I have several photos and some history for you. I tried to PM you several weeks ago but it would not go through. As soon as I can get the photos to go through I will post them.
There was a photo on the 63, 64 thread before it closed. It was at Lexington, KY. The car was white with red and blue stripes. It has Mosley Auto on the doors and Griffith Moore Dodge on the quarters.
