Too bad that one doesn't list hull types. I wonder what Al Grundstrom's Jiffy was in 1964...
In my last post there's photos of Jiffy in the later 60's racing Super Stock with the number SS-4 but that hull wasn't around in 64.
I help with what I know. Haf gast Too was a Stevens with a Vic Edelbrock built Hemi, Cream Puff was a Rayson with a Keith Black built Hemi, Honker was a Rayson, Volks Wagen was probably a Wickens, although it is possible it was a Aqua Craft, Charger was a Rayson(Dick Jones was the head tech guy for Champion plugs), Maricich's Suddenly was a Hemi powered Patterson, (was a 396 chevy by October of 1964), Penhalls Sizzler was a Hemi powered Patterson, pretty sure Sigalos' Sinner was a Hemi powered Patterson as well. He and Penhall were best friends. They both died in Sigalos plane flying home from Tahoe. Bruce Penhall and Dennis Sigalos were best friends as well and teamed up in the Ocean Spray Offshore boat.
Shreenan's Conquisttador was Rayson with a Hemi, Len Shreenan was my dads boss from about 1957 thru 1970. He owned Schiadas later.
Lou Brummett was in a Mandella, probably hemi powered, or a destroked 427 Ford.
PS I believe Haf Gast won that race for the second year in a row. Suddenly won the Nationals in October with a Dunsmore built 396 Chevy.
the rest I am clueless. Its kind of tricky due the year and even the class. Tony Maricich used a Keith Black Hemi in a Howard for the SS class called Super Suddenly the following year.
Cool article Shooter. I believe the first Loudinboomer was a Mandella with a 392 Hemi and the long ass Morse dry stacks. Those tri Y headers made more power, but they don't live up to the name like the Morse dry stacks did.
