Its been about a year or more because my home computer Died...Phone is no fun with small pics and writing..Anyway we are rolling again.. This replacement has a self starter, no push needed..Thanks for my pic in Tuesday black and white.. East Windsor about 1976...Won two weeks in a row that summer then they(officials) didnt like my nice little Mustang anymore..John Mc if you read this Rich Field and I were doing some Whitehouse NJ trivia and we need to know the name of the Chevy Dealer just east of main st and on rt 22.. Rich says Marks Chevrolet but I think there was a differant name around 1966,67,68..I do know that the hot tuner working there was Freddie Gerhardt.. You got some old freinds that might know the answer...Thank you..HtH..

Never made it to the strip but I was there on a week day visiting a college friend and we went to Stahl-Morroso's shop ..It was about 1966. shop was a small 2 bay garage behind a gas station.. That was where the original headers came from..My friend went to alot of the weekly drags at US30 Dragway..He never got the Flemington roundy-round fever like me..Was a fan only..I had a hopped up 57 Chevy two door Belair.. 301cuin, Holley 3 bbl, muncie 4 spd, 4;56 gears, traction master ladder bars...Fun car, street only..Diner to Diner in Jersey..

It was Mark Chevrolet, not Mark's. I don't remember it being FJ Chevy, I think it may have been Harvey Chevrolet for awhile before it was Mark. My dad worked there for awhile, so did Bill Nemec when he was a kid. They used to send him out for breakfast sandwiches, lol.

Thanks for all the answers everyone...I think it sounds like FJ when we were street racing..I know there was some fast muscle cars out of that shop back then..Rich Field that I work with said he remembers Mark Chevy but that was later years around 80's...HtH

Hey Howie - Always good to hear from you.

If that's the same Rich "Mac Tools" Fields, tell him his old Mac Tools Tech Rep says hello!
