I don't have any color pictures but I do have a 1974 Street Scene Magazine with a picture of it at the Playboy Club in Great Gorge New Jersey. It was owned then By Joe Troilo. I understand that he has bought it back and is restoring it back to it's original 1/4 Mile form. If I can get my Scanner working with my new computer I will add the B&W photo.
Yep, it's getting restored back to it's glory-day form, with blown 394. I sold Joe an intake for it. I can put you in touch with Joe Troilo, he undoubtedly can tell you a lot more. PM me for his e-mail address.
Is this the car that the Revell/Monogram (don't remember the make) model copied? I built that model about 15 years ago... only to have my baby brother come along and destroy it . I've always loved those Willy's gassers.
tootallrodder, check out the latest version of Rodders Journal for a full feature on the SWC restoration.
I love when people bring up old ass posts to try to be helpful two years later. I'm going to bring up the post on the season 3 American Idol, and try to be helpful and end all the speculation on who's gonna win!
Contact Mike Cook @ Cook Motorsports ( Doug " Cookie" Cooks son ) I think his shop is in Norco or Corona, CA.
I have a Mac tools poster from around 1991 with the blue version. I always figured it was a clone, not sure.
