 I got quite a few shots of the Rengade rail - very nice period piece indeed. Look for those shots, likely tomorrow.

AA/A supercharged 392 on gasoline. Owned, built and restored by Charley Haviland [spl] . Raced in one form or another since the sixtys. Worth your time to check out the history. A legend in this area.

I have not seen the car in person yet, only pictures & information which Jim, "The Kid" (James Boys Gasser) has. I have always about the history. Thx Bob, I'll have to look up the history...
