Lizard Racing Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 Dave Strickler drove Chevys in the '60s for the Ammon Smith Auto Co. Previously, I built the '69 Camaro campaigned in SS/C. That inspired me to acquire the kit of the '62 409 Bel Air. Strickler won the SS/S class at the '62 Nationals, beating Hayden Proffitt, who won Top Stock Eliminator the next day. This is the AMT kit built OOB. 4-speed, dual quad, Posi Traction 409! This is how they ran in the SS/S final. I built the Proffitt 409 many years ago. Smith/Strickler "Old Reliable" from '62 and '69. So much development in seven years!
Snake45 Posted October 21, 2018 Posted October 21, 2018 Very cool! Now you need to build Strickler's Corvette Bronze '68 Z/28.

The thought had crossed my mind after reading about it in the Super Stock book. The decal sheet I got from Mike's has white decals for this car. Thanks for the inspiration.
