It reminds me of a car that a guy who went by Bo had back about 2008-2010 range. I believe his name was Aaron Peeples. I worked with him a Chrysler, He transferred to a plant in Michigan when they closed the St.Louis plants.
Kayse can't keep up at all now. lol

I worked with him a Chrysler, He transferred to a plant in Michigan when they closed the St.Louis plants. Similar, but don't think it's the same car. I believe Bo Peeble's car was still stock suspension when I first saw it, but not 100% sure on that. It was more street car than the one shown above. EDIT...Bo Peebles' car is '69.

Cool car! I don't remember it.
What I do remember is his name, and I am pretty sure we did some selling and/or buying alot of years ago.
Good luck in your quest.

There was one real similar that used to race at Milan Dragway that had some flames on the nose of it (flames could have been added). Remember always seeing OOJoe (double O Joe) on the drivers window.

I know a double 00 Joe. Name is Joe Meese. Has always raced Mopars. Home track was Osceola, but I saw him at US131 a good bit too. Never seen him in that car though.

However it has an NHRA or IHRA number on it, also has an A&A decal on the car and trailer. Might be some plces to start anyway. Sure looks like the same car American flag decal and placement of hood pins sure look the same

That's Her Fellas!! I can see the inside door handles my buddy machined. I will get my Facebook detective wife on the case, lol. If anybody beat me to a contact name or number, please share. Thanks Guys! Call Nick Allison at A & A Transmissions in Hamby, Ind. Him and his dad Rick are long time racers and can probably help. Nick also has a facebook page. Good luck, Brian

There is no Hamby Indiana, but there is a Camby Indiana.
