What a history [IMG]http://i430.photobucket.com/albums/qq21/ajcasini/max_zpsdppwd9km.jpg[/IMG]

Absolutly,I sold it to Bill Heasly around 1975/76 with a X-Ramed Hemi.I was street driving it.Bill ran mid to high tens at Keystone. Here is the history as best I can recall. Bobby Celonie bought it new in 1965 from a dealer in Greensburg Pa. Bobby sold it to a guy in McKeesport Pa. I bought it from the guy's family(he had passed) I sold it to Bill Heasly Heasly sold it a guy named Cousins in Greenville Pa. Cousins sold it to Eric Dickey in Texas Dickey traded it to Gary the current owner. This is about what I can remember. and I'am told that the title is still in my name from when I street drove it and it's been a race car ever since. Last edited by B G Racing; 03/31/14 08:51 PM.

John,the car was finished and the owner,Jim Bane is enjoying driving,attending shows and crusies.It is tucked away in his garage just 5 miles from the shop waiting for driving weather. P.S. We have documented everything and yes we have pictures. [IMG]http://i430.photobucket.com/albums/qq21/ajcasini/max_zpsdppwd9km.jpg[/IMG]
