      Video Bob,

      Thanks for backing me up on that one. Looks like “BIS-KWIK” ended up in the hands of someone connected with Don’s Speed Shop, Newington CT, in 69′, after John Rines sold the car. Maybe it was at Dover in the 70’s too.
      Looks like “BIS-KWIK” had a best ET of 12.15 @ 112, in B/S. Then went into 3/DS (AHRA)
      and set the record at 11.50 @ 121. The car had “Record Holder” lettered on it. Must have campaigned a bit at New England Dragway (AHRA track?).

      OK Gary, Mr. Storm King. First off, you don’t need any Pinion Snubbers, if I recall your
      63′ Max-Wedge was an automatic, and the Storm King II (former “Black Arrow” S/SA) was an automatic. So you must have at least (2) loose Snubbers laying around for an 8 3/4 rear.
      I only need one. Now, if you have one of those Sox & Martin lightweight adjustable units
      that you don’t need, well I’ll take that instead. You said, they are not needed for automatics.
      Now they way those cars launched, with the Super Stock springs, I bet there wasn’t one mark
      on the rubber snubber or under-carriage below the back seat (unless Tiny Lund was in the
      back seat).

      Paul …. This has been a DIRECT-CONNECTION.
