    This is a long shot, but I am looking for info on 2 cars that my father use to drag race in Havana and Beardstown,Ill. back in the early to mid 70's.
    His name was Ron Hohimer from Springfield,Ill. His first car was a 1966 Chevy II SS,black,tunnel rammed 302,4spd w/Cragars SS's called "Mighty Mouse".
    His second car was also a Chevy II (1963) with a 331,auto called "Mighty Mouse II".
    He passed away in 2000 and I only have a couple of pics of the first car and 1 of the second.
    Any info or pics of it would be GREATLY appreciated.
    Thank You
    -Lance

    I will see if I can get them scanned. He also hung out with a guy named Larry Nine that had a car named TOP CAT.

    Was the 63 a hardtop or sedan.
    I have a 63 nova ss Hdtp that was raced in Ill in the 70's.
