    I can remember from my earliest years a '58 Mercury convertible my father had. It had the 430 Super Marauder tri power. As you say, it was beautiful to look at. I had mentioned it to people over the years who claimed it never existed. As the internet grew, I finally found an article about them. It was a "dealer installed" option. A year, or so, ago I saw one of the manifolds for sale on the web, $300.

    The Rodney Singer/Karol Miller Dragster won the 1960 NHRA championship with a front blown Lincoln an I see no reason it would not have been a Potvin. Karol still wears the ring with pride.
